Great Expectations

Although the world is getting progressively worse, we as believers used to be apart of this dying system that the world is. But we are no more(2 Cor 5:17). As a part of the process of Sanctification we do progressively get better. By no means though is it a rapid or easy process. But as we Grow in Christ, we get progressively more Christ like. Let us not forget that in dealing with other believers. Let us look for evidence of graces in others. When we see a fault let us gracefuly encourage one another to move beyond that sin which so easly entangles us. (Heb 12:2) Strive to be a means of grace in the life of others. Let us be patient with one another, for santictification is a life long process. Lets let grace have its affect. Take this as an oportunity to pray for that brother or sister in Christ.
P.S. I may update this at a later date with a CJ Mahaney quote.
Update
"The call of God in the lives of believers means that God has been at work in them, and the evidences of grace reveal that He is at work in the present. And we will motivate others by grace when we percieve where and how He is at work in thier lives and humbly let them know." -CJ Mahaney p104 Humility
