And let endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. James 1:4
In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus called for us to be perfect, as our Father is perfect. Here James called us to let endurance have its perfect result that we might be perfect and complete. Can we be perfect? Of course we can. The question is, how. We can never be perfect by our own efforts, but the righteousness that comes from God in Christ, can make us perfect, complete, and mature. Have a little fun this week. Tell people you are perfect. After they quit laughing, tell them about Jesus and how He can make us all perfect.
