Yes, we are to be perfect. And of course, that is impossible! So He must do it in us - He is faithful: "He who began a good work in you will complete it." (And He even put the faith in us!)
So how does He do that - make perfect - with weak ones such as all we are? As He told those in Philadelphia, "You have a little strength . . ." Was the most positive letter to the Revelation churches written to those who are really awesome and who were doing mighty works of faith? No, but rather to those who were showing just "a little strength." Faithful in a few . . .
So what are the "few things" the Lord is showing you to be faithful in?
