I am not a perfect man. I don't have a perfect life. I don't act from perfect love. I don't live perfect dreams. I don't have perfect faith.
But...
..I serve a perfect Father God, who sent a perfect Savior, who made a perfect sacrifice, to bring me a perfect salvation, to keep me in perfect security, to give me a perfect hope, to ultimately bring me someday to perfect sanctification - all of this arising out of his perfect love.
...and that's just perfect!
This blog compiles some notes and observations from one average guy's journey of life, faith and thought, along with some harvests from my reading (both on-line and in print). Learning to follow Jesus is a journey; come join me on the never-ending adventure!

A Permanent Place To Stand
“We stand in grace through the access that Jesus has gained for us. Jesus not only rescues us from the wrath to come, he not only forgives our sins, but he has obtained for us a place to stand in grace, a place of total acceptance and security, fully qualified and not fearing sudden disqualification or forced removal.”
