That doesn't happen overnight.
We're not looking for perfection in the moment.
We're looking for progress over time.
And so we attend daily to spending time with our Lord and our Savior.
And it begins to shape us.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
The Christian life isn't built in a day.
I love that parable of the farmer who Jesus says goes out and he sows the seed in the field and then he goes in and he lays down for the night and he goes to sleep.
Now, he would be an awful farmer if he sowed the seed in the field and he said, I can't believe it's not growing.
No, it's a good farmer that lays down for the night.
And while he's sleeping, what happens?
And when he raises in the morning, there is a bountiful harvest.
You and I are just planting seeds in our life as we're spending time with the Lord.
And over time, we expect there to be progress.
We expect to see it overnight.
