The Law of the Perfecting

WHO God is — and therefore who you are made to be.

Able to be corrected and able to correct — the contrite, undefended woman, which is the only kind who can be perfected.

HOW that attribute acts. Godliness is never idle.

To see the finished thing before it exists — and by seeing it, to know which dial to turn.

WHAT that attribute holds, keeps, and increases.

One view of the whole thing from above — the first altitude a woman gains over her own work.

The attribute is no longer worn — it is who you are.

Constantly making better — she does not only receive correction, she supplies it.

The way of moving is now automatic, a built path.

To remove the fault from the thing itself — the scholar's word for repairing a text until it reads true.

What godliness holds becomes an inheritance.

The structure itself — she does not carry an outline, she has become the outline others build to.

The attribute now carries power to act.

True, plumb, foundationally sound — and settled in it, with the quiet pleasure of a straight line.

You do the thing God would do, in Their way.

Not envisioning. Envisage faces the thing and shows the steps — each stage required to get there.

The estate is governed, not merely owned.

Plural — outlines in increase. She holds the whole of many things at once: seeing, and overseeing.
