The process is not finished, but it is going on

This life therefore

is not righteousness

but growth in righteousness;
not health

but healing;
not being

but becoming;
not rest

but exercise.
We are not yet what we shall be,

but we are growing toward it.
The process is not finished,

but it is going on.
This is not the end,

but it is the road.
All does not yet gleam in glory,

but all is being purified.
~Martin Luther
