IMPERFECT

this morn, i was deciding what to wear and felt God's spirit telling me to go with the beautiful red t-shirt onto which i had put a quilt of squares of pretty red fabrics from my past. this was in keeping with valentine's day coming tomorrow. (i ask God's advice on these things sometimes. thankfully He doesn't mind me asking such things even i so often disobey in more important things. Thankyou, Lord.) so i went forward with the red and quilted t-shirt. i was hesitant 'cuz the shirt had imperfectly finished edges on the quilted area. i need to finish it. so i was really responding (in faith) to what i felt God was leading with by wearing it. when i put it on and looked in the mirror, i said wow! to myself 'cuz the colors and patterns WERE so vibrant and beautiful. it made me happy. and i'm glad i can share these colors with others. ...... why am i writing this? also this morn, i listened to Andrew Wommack speaking about when Elijah got his mind and eyes off of God, and consequently got distracted doing what God had not asked him to do and did not complete what God had specifically asked him to do. .......... i'm getting ahead of myself putting in the part about Elijah. i was just going to talk about imperfection in general here. and my collection of "waba" words. there is a word in Japanese that means the conscious inclusion of an imperfection in a work of art in order to (i don't know their reason for it. but i personally like the idea- to acknowledge and celebrate that we are imperfect creatures and that God IS perfect and knows our imperfection and made us this way and he is able and He can deal with our imperfections, etc....................... there is a word in Japanese that is the name of that very hot condiment made of pureed horseradish. .................. there is a word in Arabic that names a very orthodox sect of Islam.......... that's all for now.
