Bea, I have long had this Luther quote but never knew where in Luther's wor=
ks it came from.  It sounds so contemporary.  Do you know if it's a pretty =
accurate translation of the German or is it more of a paraphrase?

Thanks for using it.=20

  "This life is therefore,
  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 yet 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."
