A perfect 10

"It was a perfect sacrifice by a perfect person to perfect some very imperfect people."

Say that five times fast.

The other P word that was all over this reading was promise.

"Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going."

"You need to stick it out, staying with God's plan so you'll be there for the promised completion."

There's another P word: plan.

What is God's plan for Faith?

Christ's prophecy (another P word!) speaks to that:
"I'm here to do it your way, O God, the way it's described in your Book."

In order to get a grip on a big picture plan for Faith, we need to read the Instruction Manual.

Regarding the promise, "God always keeps his word. Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching."

Lastly, "We're not quitters who lose out. Oh, no! We'll stay with it and survive, trusting all the way."

Amen. Amen. Amen.
