"I gave up all that inferior stuff so I could know Christ personally, experience his resurrection power, be a partner in his suffering, and go all the way with him to death itself." ~Philippians 3:10

Perfect! That is really all I can say about life lately. God, family, work. All of it is amazing!! I'm not saying that life is problem free. I mean, I almost lost my daughter this week as she gave birth to my granddaughter. she suffered heart failure and was very near death. We now know she has a congenital heart disease that was never discovered. Doesn't sound like the definition of perfect?

My wife and I have decided to move to Honduras and fulfill our dream of living there and working to make a difference in a country plagued by a 66% poverty rate and per capita income of $1030. The problem is we don't have the support to do it and we are working diligently to raise it, but...we don't have it as of today. Again, doesn't fit the definition of perfect?

No, life is not problem or difficulty free, but it is perfect. Why? Because it is life! Every moment, every experience, every relationship. The ups, downs, successes, disappointments. The experience of life itself is perfect! I absolutely love it....all of it. Really.
