Christian Perspective
Transforming Sermons borrows from this post by Paul Littleton and then makes this point:
Viewing the Christian life as a long-term project does indeed make it easier to accept frustrations and pain--even those extending our entire lifetime on earth. Taking the long term also gives us the opportunity for joy in knowing how the war will end, and that our Master's side will be victorious.I think that is a great point -- How long term is your view? Do you want immediate results? The transformation that God brings about in our lives takes a lifetime. The key is to give that lifetime to God.
