“Some sins are small and easy. We stop and walk the other way. Some sins, like the bicycle, are a little more difficult. … there is the process of coming to a stop, the process of the turn itself, and the process of getting up to speed in faithfulness. But some sins are enormous…. God works patiently with us, carefully slowing us down, as the captain does with the ship…” - Ligonier
