in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.I have a little experience with building, from volunteer projects over the years. It tends to be a messy process, since what's happening to us is more of a rebuilding, where first the bad stuff has to be cleared away. This part takes a lot of energy, but is more satisfying; spiritually, it's not nearly as satisfying, as the parts that have to be taken away are removed by force, and it hurts a lot.
However, the real work begins then; once you're down to the foundation, then proper building starts. That's a very long, drawn-out process, and requires skilled workers to do the job properly. I'm honestly not sure I've even gotten to this place, as I feel like there is still a lot of rotting wood to demolish in my own life.
