  If people love you at 6:30 in the morning, one thing is sure: They love you. They don't love your title. They don't love your style. They don't love your accomplishments. They just love you...
  Sounds like God's love.
  "He has made perfect forever those who are being made holy," wrote another.
  Underline the word perfect. Note that the word is not "better". not "improving." Not "on the upswing." God doesn't improve; he perfects. He doesn't enhance: he completes. What does the perfect person lack?
  Now I realize that there's a sense in which we're imperfect. We still err. We still stumble. We still do exactly what we don't want to do. And that part of us is, according to the verse, "being made holy."
  But when it comes to our position before God, we're perfect. When he sees each of us, he sees one who has been made perfect through the One who is perfect--Jesus Christ.
  You are absolute perfection. Flawless. Without defects or mistakes. Unsullied. Unrivaled. Unmarred. Peerless. Virgin pure. Undeserved yet unreserved perfection.
  No wonder heaven applauds when you wake up. A masterpiece has stirred.

The Father's Love Letter
It seemed to be his last. He was one of those unfortunate people
with the talent to always be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
He was born wrong...Declining Roman Empire, the broken home, the conquered Jewish Nation, the poverty striken slum.
Others went to school...he played hookey. Others played ball...he stole apples. Others learned a trade...he learned to cheat.
He was a common thief. He started wrong, he lived wrong, and it looked as if he'd finish wrong.
Wrong place...wrong time. Roman cross...painful death...final shame.
...When from the middle cross came the words of redeeming love...
"you shall be with me in paradise."
In all the stream of human history...only one of the numberless sons of Adam could have said those words.....And he hung beside him.
What tremendous fortune...What wonderous providence.
In one instant, his life...given to evil...thoroughly misused...doomed to die...was changed...and ended in crowning glory.
It was the one sentence which redeems all failure...and it was said to him...in life's final flickering moment.
This one most important issue was gloriously solved...
At long last, he was in the right place at the right time.
