The delicate balance between facing mortality and being reborn into a new existence is vital for nurturing a positive mindset. When we witness our inherent tendency towards corruption, both internally and externally, we often replace our innate anger with fanciful notions that excessively dwell on sinful behavior. This natural response is intertwined with guilt and the fear of judgment from others. In this context, we must recognize anxiety and emotional hardness as a result of lacking comprehensive aspirations towards maturity and humility. However, the inclination to focus on sin as a means of overcoming these reactions, driven by an unhealthy dose of guilt and shame, is merely a facade of humility and a misunderstanding of grace. The only fertile ground for harboring this repressed anger will ultimately lead to a distorted self-perception, hindering us from finding peace and tranquility in embracing God's merciful invitation to live and flourish through His revealed teachings. As previously stated, we are not simply undergoing a process of transformation; rather, He has already determined to surpass our expectations and exceed our comprehension. Thus, we are continually lifted from one state of glory to another.
