The Perfect Life

At my age I have finally become comfortable with who I am or more so...who I'm not... and with my not so perfect body. It fits me like an old shoe…doesn’t look so good but it fits good. I used to be an anal retentive tight ass. Nothing short of perfection made me happy. Things had to be my way. I think they call it O.C.D. now days. I wanted to live in the perfect world with the perfect wife and perfect children. I wanted to have the perfect house, perfect yard and drive the perfect car.

But things are not like that…it took me a lifetime to figure that out....I never was too bright. Now I am happy with the not so perfect wife and not so perfect life.


I do look forward to that perfect life. I know it is not going to be in this world…it’ll be in the next.

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for showing me the perfect life.
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for leaving me “the book” of instruction on how to obtain it.
Please, Lord Jesus, help me keep on the straight and narrow so I may enjoy it with you.

Amen.
