What is Perfection?

Perfect- adjective- pure or unmixed

"I always knew I'd never reach perfection. And if I ever did, than I wasn't trying hard enough, because there is always for to reach for."- Seeking, Searching, Reaching, Always- We Came As Romans.

This quote has really changed me look on life and myself lately. While WCAR is not strictly Christian Rock, they preach a good message. In a world where the view of "perfection" has been drastically skewed, this guys shout the truth. That's what I want to talk about today. Perfection. What is it? What does it look like? Where I can find me some of it?

Well, first, I believe perfection is impossible. The only person I can think of who is perfect is God himself. God created every one of us in his image, but thanks to sin, we become skewed and lose sight of what is "perfect." Society's view of perfect kinda plays like this: Blonde or brunette hair (since red hair deems you a "Ginger"), large chest, good makeup, nice teeth, tan, and name brand clothes. Guys, basically nice teeth, name brand clothes and a six pack. This image is splattered all over every name brand store, Aeropostle, Ambercombie and Fitch, American Eagle. All shirtless men that are built. But really, all that does is ruin people's self esteem.

Perfection is in the eye of the beholder. Nobody can define perfection for you, you need to discover what you believe is perfect. It takes a while, and you may make mistakes, but that is why Jesus died on the cross. To forgive our mistakes. But we need to life our lives for Christ and not throw caution to the wind and do whatever. Perfection is what you decide, and you cannot let anybody define your principles. Make your own path in life, you only get one.
