2 Corinthians 3:18

"And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit."

Contrary to my typical perception, I am not some semi-alright, somewhat stained, in-process individual on the road to perfection. We've gotta stop bashing the work that Christ has already done internally, and embrace the fact that His grace made us lovely the moment we accepted it.

If we're being transformed from glory to glory, we are already glorious.
