Transcript
The fact that it bothers you is progress. My pastor would say something like this to me all the time. I'd be like, man, I wish I wasn't still struggling with this or with that. He'd be like, yeah, me too. But the fact that it bothers you is progress. You gotta switch it up. You gotta be like, thank you Good for the process of sanctification. Thank you that I'm not who or where I was. Thank you that I'm not blind to what I'm struggling with. Thank you that even though my flesh and my spirit are at war within me, this tension is evidence that my spirit is getting stronger.
