How Perfect Are We To Be? (11-06-07)

Blog: How Perfect Are We To Be?

I admit that I have a tendency toward perfectionism, though one might question that looking at my desktop. When I leave at the end of the day, it is seldom a picture of perfection and neatness. If I had the time, however, I would love to stay and make it neat. I like neat. I like order and spotless and "perfect" ...

Jesus said that we are to be "perfect" as our Heavenly Father is perfect. The Scripture says that God is a God of order, not disorder.

So, what am I to think about my desire for order and "perfection" but my inability to carry it out?
