I have found perfection is Christ and I am certainly not worthy to be in this same sentence. Yet I yearn to be on some levels. Some would say well that is what he desires for us. But, does he really want perfection in the avenue some seek it.
I am blessed to have this personality of "the stuff others sweat are not making me sweat" I let alot roll off my back and alot does. But some things don't and they eat @ my core. Annoyance of life can be sumed as " it is me and my desire for others to see why perfection will make you loose sight of acceptance'
Christ was both tolerant of others and intolerant of others. He has shown this is dealing with me and my faults.
I have seen couples loose sight of what God desires because they were not tolerant and that would include me in my marriage.
Now this is hard to swallow. Because, I only want certain things . What I have realized is I don't have these things because God said "No Sandy, it is not for you, not now ,maybe never" Now show me how much is this " going to hold you back from loving me and following me, and living for me, over and over, day in and day out, from morning to dark. from the begenning until the end.
I vow to not let the imperfection of others keep me from loving my GOD with all I am and through all the annoyances he sends my way.
It is to test my true character!!!!
My conclusion is the character I build through Christ will be, by the way of getting to his perfection through annoyances of life and all that I encounter in it.
Forgive, wipe the slate clean, and live knowing you are not perfect.
