IMPERFECT

Today I am grateful. My life is not perfect. My marriage is not perfect. My family is not perfect. My house and cars are not perfect. My finances are FAR from perfect. My job is not perfect. My church is not perfect. My friends are not perfect. Yet I am grateful for each one of these, for even in their imperfections they are much more than I deserve; in their imperfections I see the grace of God; in the midst of imperfection I can glimpse the horizon of future perfection in Him. Today, I encourage you, my friends near and far, to look for the goodness and grace in the imperfections of your life.

God, You are good and Your mercies endure forever. Amen.
