In amazement we inquire,
How can this be? Our Lord Jesus was always in perfect harmony with
the Father—a Son who gloriously reflected His likeness; but it has
not been so with us; we were sinners and had nothing worthy of love.
Yes, but we have been washed and cleansed, and, however imperfect
our earthen vessels may still be, our hearts are perfect in His
sight who is able to read the heart. And, as He sees us with a
perfect heart—a perfect purpose and intention—Striving to overcome
the weaknesses and disabilities of our imperfect flesh, and with
painful, yet determined, effort to do His will, and humbly trusting
in the provisions which He has made for our redemption from the
fall, God recognizes in us that which is worthy of His
love. |
