Perfection
I was sick and tired of making mistakes .. and feeling guilty ..and thinking i'm such a disappointing child of God.I desperately wanted to be 'a perfect believer'..until a wise friend said to me "there's no such thing as a perfect believer .there's only a perfect savior." so true ! believe me I tried so hard..to become this 'perfect' child .. a perfect human..and looking back i feel stupid !I mean, if I was perfect, why on the face of the earth would I need God ?
We're imperfect by default.And the imperfection is meant to be nullified and corrected by the most perfect being..God himself. That's His perfect plan And what we do is not let Him play His part . So we stay stuck wherever we are in our imperfection . We start blaming Him for everything.And we lose our only chance to be who we're meant to be..'perfect in Christ Jesus'
It's a vicious cycle that begins with the realization of our imperfection..then the self-loathing and guilt finds it's way in..and then the blame-game..which pushes us away from He who can help us out..and we get pushed further away.And we stay there forever because we never knew that the Guy we were running away from and putting the blame on ,is the Guy who can help us out! complicated..but true.
The best thing about being created 'imperfect' is that God , who knows every little imperfection of your's ,is gonna make it perfect! beautiful .So , be happy that you're imperfect . But do not forget the vitally inseparable fact..you're imperfect because God alone can and wants to make you perfect
