In Search Of Perfect



Everybody is in search of something. As humans go thru the journey of life we always want all things to be running smooth. But how many times does that really happen? Lets take a beautiful home with a loving family. Can this home be perfect? Yes indeed, the house can be perfect however the family that lives inside cannot and will not be perfect. Within any family on the face of the earth there will be problems within each other. Disagreements, jealously, dislike and there will always be some sort of problem or another as long as your life exist. But there will also be love. Why? Because we are human! Can a workplace be perfect? Yes it can, however the people cannot. There will sooner or later be disagreements and problems of some sort. Why? Because we are human!!
Can a church be perfect? Yes indeed it can. There are some beautiful churches all over the place that are simply amazing. However the people inside cannot be perfect. Someone will be jealous, disagree, opinionated, short tempered and the list can go on and on. But the church building can be perfect!! The structure, the boards ,the nails that hold it all together can be perfectly put in place to make it perfect. Everything can be perfect until you blend in the human element. We are all so much alike yet totally opposite. And we very seldom agree on anything so we just work around it. This usually ends up in some sort of strife in our lives. Why is this so prevalent in all of our lives? Simply put it is because we are human. Look at the beautiful earth that God has created for us and what do we do with it ?
Well we sure don’t take care of it like it was our temporary home. We humans continue to litter, pollute and slowly destroy the earth. When the human race is gone from the earth it will flourish, untainted by the human touch. We are all so difficult in some way or another!! Yet we struggle to get along and try to make things work. In search of perfect can take a life time journey and in the end you will still be looking for perfect.
Is there such a thing as a perfect place? Yes it is ,we just wont find it here. Is there such a thing as a perfect person? Yes it is, but we will not be able to see that person until we reach heaven and look into the eyes of God. Then and only then will we see perfect. Because perfect does not exist in the human race here on earth. It never has and it never will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So make the best of the people who you come in contact with each and every day and take joy in knowing that we all have something in common. IMPERFECTION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Imagine the person in your life that is the hardest to get along with, then imagine the rest of the world being just like that person. Scary isn’t it ? That’s why God made us all different. Praise the Lord .
