Our misconception is that Christ wants to change our personalities. Nothing could be farther from the truth. He wants to redeem our personalities. Christ wants to make stubbornness into steadfastness, emotionalism into compassion, foolhardiness into faith. We are "fearfully and wonderfully made," and Jesus' purpose is for us to reach the full potential of this craftsmanship.
