Perfection is overrated. Perfection is unrealistic. Each of us have our own understanding of what constitutes perfection – standards that are unattainable – which are imposed on situations, people and selves.<\/p>\n
The idea of perfection varies. In the end, it comes down to our own perceptions. What is ideal in our own eyes.<\/p>\n
I think there should be only one standard of perfection for\u00a0Christians: Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
Why was He perfect?<\/p>\n
Simple. He did not sin. No wrong was found in Him (Hebrews 4:15).<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, we tend to hold others to our ideas of perfection. And when those standards are not met – some of us tend to become … well … not someone we want to be around.<\/p>\n
The point is that we don’t approach God because we are perfect in our own eyes. We approach God because we are not perfect – and through Jesus, we are made holy before God.<\/p>\n
Perfect.<\/p>\n
