Like many roads mine was full of potholes. It has made driving difficult and dangerous. Now the council is repairing them but it has invo9lved making the main road one-way. With such a busy route the tailbacks and hold-ups are considerable. So at the present time things are considerably worse. Eventually, of course, travelling will be easier and safer.
It’s a bit like our sin which makes life hard. When God starts to deal with it, things will be more difficult for a while, but eventually like the roads things, will be improved. Sin will be cancelled and by God’s grace the journey of life will be easier.
