Peace & Poetry

People say that no one is perfect, but is that really true? 

Perfection is defined as having all required and desired elements, qualities, and characteristics; to be complete. 

All those who are in Christ are complete and shall lack no good thing. Even in our weakness, Christ makes us perfect. His grace is sufficient! 

Let us then tear down the lies and thoughts that exalt themselves above the knowledge of God, and be perfect as He is perfect!

Stop saying you’re not perfect! 
Hath not our Father in heaven commanded us
To be perfect, even as He is?
It’s impossible for man to obtain, 
But with God all things are possible.

Think it not an occasion for boasting, 
For it is by faith that these things be so, 
And not of our own efforts.
Instead, let all boasting be in God; 
Let it be done in Him alone;	
		
Being transformed and renewed in mind,
Until we reflect His perfect image
Into which we were created.
For we are truly His workmanship,
And were perfected by His sacrifice.

Since we have these promises, 
Let us put aside all weights and sin,
Cleansing ourselves from all filth; 
Perfecting holiness with all reverence,
And assured that these words are true: 

He with perfect knowledge is with us
And all who draw nigh are made perfect 
Just as His ways are perfect;
Perfect in love and perfect in peace 
Because we trust in Him.

For we are the children of light,
And were given all things pertaining to life.
As He who calls those things which are not, 
As though they were
Let us declare EVEN OUR PERFECTION!
