“It is not perfection that leads us to God; it is perseverance.” Joan Chittister
I read this and immediately thought of Matthew 5:48: “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.” Of course, the aspiration for perfection in life is just that, an aspiration. Luckily, when I persevere, God fills in the gaps, the imperfections, with His grace and forgiveness.
