THE BABY IS PERFECT

Proverbs 24:30-34 (KJV)
“30 I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;
31 And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.
32 Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.
33 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
34 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.”
Inside these walls, this city, this corner of the world we will unfold our hands to find understanding. “Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus: Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily” (Colossians 1:28-29).
“Perfect,” this is the breath of a baby struggling to crawl. This baby is perfect; this baby has everything it needs inside its struggle to become one who can stand and walk on its own. This baby is perfect in the eyes of the Father. All God expects out of us is the struggle. Rip those vines down, remove the thorns and the nettles, rebuild the wall that is broken down and let us provide a habitation; then He will see, and consider it well.
