What a beautiful day! 60 degrees, sunny, and I am able to walk around outside without a jacket. Oh sure, it is not perfect. There are no leaves yet, there is not much green, and the ground is a little soft. I mean, there are things I just can't do yet, because the ground is too soft. Imagine if I let today go to waste because things are not yet perfect! While not yet perfect, today is wonderful.
Sometimes I think we in the church can start talking too much about how perfect heaven will be someday. With that perfection in mind, we easily find and complain about every thing that is not perfect today. I know it is not yet perfect, but there is much to celebrate today. New life in Christ is so much better than what came before, and offers so many opportunities. I must not let it go to waste.
