How long has it been since you have thought of yourself as "perfect" (dictionary definition: complete in all respects, flawless)? Anyone ever tell you that? Is that how you see yourself?

 

Did you know that is how God sees you and me?

 

The writer of Hebrew says in the 10th chapter, beginning with the 11th verse, says:

 

"Under the old agreement the priests stood before the altar day after day offering sacrifices that could never take away our sins. But Christ gave himself to God for our sins as one sacrifice for all time, and then sat down in the place of highest honor at God's right hand, waiting for his enemies to be laid under his feet. For by that one offering he made forever perfect in the sight of God all those whom he is making holy."

 

Comments at the bottom of my Bible state: ..."Christ once for all made his believers perfect in God's sight........God never remembers our sins. If, in Christ, forgiveness is complete...as believers, we can be confident that our sins -- past, present, and future -- have been forgiven and forgotten."

 

Doesn't make any difference what others think about me, what somebody else might tell me, what I might think about myself..... what I have done, or not done, or should do..........God says in his sight I am perfect because of Christ.........and so are you..........

 

What an amazing thought! Hang on to it.......and have a "perfectly" wonderful day!
