Him: “But why do you care do much? Does it really affect you?”
Her: “I care because I want someone to care that much about me. I want to know that if I decided to run head long into a speeding train, someone would keep pace with me the entire time trying to stop me.”
Him: “But I do.”
I have no idea how to introduce this post, so I’m skipping the first paragraph.
During rehearsal on Tuesday, it came to mind that I should see my throat doctor because something didn’t feel/sound right. I went in for a visit on Wednesday and a scope of my vocal cords revealed that the granuloma…
This hurts my heart.
And my ears.
QUESTION: Why do you think people who call themselves Christians sometimes say the most hateful things about Muslims?
WARREN: Well, some of those folks probably aren’t really Christians. 1 John 4:20 says, “If anyone says, ‘I love God,’ yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.” And 1 John 2:9 says “Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness.” I am not allowed by Jesus to hate anyone. Our culture has accepted two huge lies: The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear them or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.
I am perfectly imperfect.
I make mistakes, misspeak, misunderstand, misrepresent and miss turns.
I miss people I shouldn’t.
I have bad days, bad mornings, bad nights, bad dreams and bad Chinese.
I’ve had bad Chinese a lot.
I regret things I’ve said, haven’t said, did, haven’t done, and ate.
Like bad Chinese.
There are people I don’t like and there are people who don’t like me.
There’s no hard feelings.
I’m open and guarded, willing and reserved.
I have come a long, long way, and have further to go.
I’m old enough to think I’m younger than I actually am.
My family drives me crazy and I love the ride.
I am perfectly imperfect..
and yet, I am loved.
I am loved with by a perfect Love, never failing, never condemning.
A Love that sings over me, dances over me, cheers me on and cheers me up.
A Love that picks me up, dusts me off, corrects me, disciplines me all the while loving me unconditionally.
My perfect imperfection glorifies God more than my version of perfection ever could.
While I was still imperfect, Perfection died for me. While I fought against my imperfections in vain, Perfection was winning the battle for me. When I thought my imperfections had won, Perfection stood up victorius.
He is glorified in my imperfections simply because that without Him I can do nothing.
I am perfectly imperfect. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
