A Season Of Transformation

May 8, 2025 | Devotional

By Emily James

If you aren’t a winter person, you’re probably welcoming this new season with open arms! Spring is a time of transformation. The cold, barren landscape gradually gives way to fresh blooms, longer days, and the warmth of new life. Change is everywhere, and whether we embrace it with excitement or hesitation, we all go through it. 

At our core, we long for a deeper kind of change, one that renews our hearts. The Bible calls this process sanctification, the ongoing work of God shaping us into His image. 

“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” – 2 Corinthians 3:18 (NIV) 

Just as flowers don’t bloom overnight, spiritual growth takes time. Here are two key truths about transformation: 

Growth Takes Time – Transformation rarely happens overnight, but God is always at work, shaping us little by little. Even when we don’t see immediate results, we can trust that He is cultivating something beautiful in us. Are we willing to surrender and let Him work in His perfect timing? 

God’s Word Brings Renewal – When we immerse ourselves in God’s Word, our thinking is transformed. The more we align our hearts with His promises, the more we experience the freedom and change He desires for us. 

As spring unfolds, may it remind us, transformation isn’t just possible, it’s His promise. Let’s trust Him to renew us from the inside out.
