God isn’t looking for perfection. In fact, it’s impossible for any of us to be perfect. That’s why He selflessly sent His son to bear the burden of all our sins. Moreover, it is why I am comforted by the fact that his expectation of me is also that I strive to be better, to live better, and to carry myself in a way that uplifts Him, a way that serves as an example of all that He’s done in my life, and leads others to His saving power and grace. When we talk about being better, not perfect, in our journey of personal growth, it is so comforting to know that it is also God’s expectation of me. That is His expectation of you too.
