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.
