​Song of Solomon 4:7 Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.(KJV)
Songs of Solomon 4:7- [He exclaimed] O my love, how beautiful you are! There is no flaw in you! (AMP)
All our lives, we excuse many of our mistakes and shortcomings with this phrase; ” nobody is perfect”. Somehow, it helps us to explain imperfection in our bodies, relationships and yes spiritual lives.
But you are perfect; without spot or blemish just like the Lamb that was slain. Even with freckles, pimples, that acne that won’t seem to go away, you are flawless.
The Bible says as Christ is, so are we. GOD sees us with the Jesus lens; pure and clean.
It’s time you stopped comparing yourself to that slimmer girl or that taller guy. Just because you are not a size eight like your cousin does not mean you are imperfect or that there’s something wrong.
Sometime ago, I envied a rather quiet Christian girl. I’ll tell you why, she seemed to command more respect than I thought I did. The Lord made me realize ( something He still does continually) that my more outgoing personality was perfect for me. I could never be her, she could never be me.
Everything and everyone GOD has brought into your life is for a perfect reason. In HIS eyes, You are righteous, holy, pure , faultless not because of you but Christ that lives in you.
I’m not saying we don’t do wrong, make mistakes or hurt others, which we ask forgiveness for. The thing is don’t focus on those failings, shortcomings, weaknesses and magnify them, see yourself as Christ sees you; FLAWLESS.
Don’t forget GOD does not make mistakes.
