Usually Fridays are my favorite day of the week. The days that I designate certain "deep" cleaning duties do not fall on Friday. Dale gets off work on Friday, and usually goes in late on Friday. Then I get to get out of the house, every house wife's dream, and go run errands. I don't mind the errands so much since I am getting to spend time with Dale, BUT this is not one of those Fridays. Today Dale has a full day of work, and I put off all of my "deep" cleaning duties because I was lazy this week. (I know no one has ever experienced that right?) Still for some reason I have had a really good day. This week has reemphasized my imperfection. I know I am not perfect, but I am glad of it. If I was perfect then God wouldn't have to work on me, and if He didn't have to work on me than I wouldn't get to have as close of a relationship with Him. Just like when you are in a musical group or on a sports team (actually I wouldn't know much about sports since I never played them), if your section in that musical group is not doing well, then the director needs to work with that section. Everyone else has to wait. So my philosophy is this. Being perfect is what I am striving for, but never will be until I see my King in glory. I am glad of that because it is through my imperfection that God can truly shine, for if I know I am not perfect then everything that is good that comes from is from the Lord. I can know that it is from the Lord because I could never be good on my own!
To God be the Glory,

So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
1 Corinthians 15:42-44
