we are all in the process of becoming

“We are all in the process of becoming. We have already moved from what we were to what we are, and we are now moving toward what we shall be. The perturbing thought is not that we are becoming, but what we are becoming; not that we are moving; but toward what we are moving. We are becoming what we love.”

— A.W. Tozer, from the chapter “We Are Becoming What We Love” from God Tells the Man Who Cares

I love this idea that we are always in motion. We are never stuck.

If we are bored. If we are unfulfilled. If we are unhappy.

We have to ask ourselves what are we moving toward? What exactly are we loving?

“Loving wrong objects is fatal,” Tozer writes. “It is only as we love right objects that we become right. “
