" “turn” and “behold”.  The promise that our transformation comes from our ongoing growth in intimacy with Christ.  We turn to Christ; He transforms us.  The simplicity and assurance of this path is, for me, perhaps the most encouraging truth in the New Testament because I’m liberated from having to custom build my own life.  My responsibilities reside in learning how to develop intimacy with Christ.  His job is to change me; His promise is that He will."                                                                                 -Dahlstrom
