Just came across a quote from Charles Swindoll that ties in nicely with Sunday’s sermon.  “If our perfect Lord is gracious enough to take our worst, our ugliest, our most boring, our least successful . . . and forgive, burying them in the depths of the sea, then it’s high time we give each other a break . . . He promises full acceptance along with full forgiveness . . . without an erratum sheet attached.  Isn’t that encouraging?  Can’t we be that type of encourager to one another?  After all, imperfection is one of the few things we still have in common.”  (Come Before Winter)
