This past week, I have been pouring levelling agents trying to make an old house floor appear straight. No matter how much levelling agent we put on the floor, we can never make it altogether level. Trying to straighten up our own lives is a challenge and never works. We can use superficial products. We do this every day in our lives. However, when we seek the Lord, we are looking for God to take this body of corruption and make it straight and holy.

“For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.” 1 Cor 15:53-54
