"You are as perfect right now as you ever have been or ever will be. Why? Because you are enveloped into the ONE Who IS perfection. No labor. No effort. Just being."
Matt Pandel
"For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did, by which we draw near to God."
Hebrews 7:19
What hope did we imperfect humans ever have of perfectly keeping the law? None, really! But God gave us a better hope - the perfect Christ. He perfectly united Himself to our humanity and perfectly fulfilled the law for us. There is no need to struggle and strive; we can simply BE right where we are - in Him! We are wrapped in His perfection, and that is enough.
A thought: I am perfect before God because I am in the Perfection of His Perfect Son!
