So, I've been thinking about this a bit recently and did a quick search on the things Scripture calls perfect. And I've needed to remind myself over and over again that these things will always be true. God's Ways and Will may not always seem perfect to us, but perhaps that's because we aren't yet! I was amazed by the amount of times Scripture references people having a perfect heart. I'm nowhere near there yet, but by His grace, He will "perfect that which concerns me". Psalm 138:8 and " being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ:" Philippians 1:6. Amen!

Second, separate yourself from all of the attractions of the world, the flesh and the devil! Finally, offer yourself to your God and Saviour in believing faith! God has never yet turned away an honest, sincere person who has come to know the eternal value of the atonement and the peace that is promised through the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. The only person who will never be cleansed and made whole is the one who insists he or she needs no remedy. The person who comes in faith to God and confesses, "I am unclean; I am sin-sick; I am blind," will find mercy and righteousness and life. Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Saviour, the Cleanser. He is the Purifier, the Healer. He is the Sight-giver and the Li...
