Day 12: Perfectly Imperfect

So if you want me to make you an espresso,

I will leave a MESS.

I don't try to, but no matter how hard I

try to not make a MESS

a MESS is created.

When my hubby rolls his eyes at the MESS,

I gently remind him

that we all have

WEAKNESSES

and we all have STRENGTHS.

And one of my WEAKNESSES

is creating a

MESS when I make espresso,

well actually

whenever I am in the kitchen.

But I just have to chuckle

because I so believed that I could

achieve PERFECTION in all areas of my life.

And oh how I MESSED that up too

because

PERFECTION does not exist,

but only in the eyes of our CREATOR

when HE sees us covered by HIS SON.

For we are PERFECTLY IMPERFECT

and that is why GOD LOVES US.

Now how did I get from sharing my MESSY espresso station

to being PERFECTLY LOVED by GOD?

Because I need GOD to LOVE me PERFECTLY,

so that when I do make

a MESS

HE gently reminds me that I am

"FLAWLESS"
