Transformation: Balancing God's Part and Mine

Paul was constrained not by his love for Christ, but by Christ's boundless love for him. That was the measure that enabled him to walk by faith, to discern God's will and, like a butterfly, to be metamorphosed. We too are exhorted to not fashion ourselves after the world's thinking but to be transformed. That is not expected of us, without all that is needed being supplied.
