Eloquently Speaking, I had to learn the hard way that my "IMPERFECTIONS", my inadequacies, my limitations, my deficiencies, my failures, my blemishes, my shortcomings and my weaknesses does not "CHANGE" who I am....you see all of those 'IMPERFECTIONS" helped me to be "REAL" and "SEE" me the way I was and the way I am, "JACKED UP" but healed! Somebody has to hear me this morning. None of us are perfect, we all have our flaws and our shortcomings BUT it does not stop God from PERFECTLY LOVING US IN OUR IMPERFECT CONDITION. So I say that to say.....be who you are! Don't be afraid to shine your light even in your flawed condition. Moses did! Gideon Did! Elijah did! The Woman at The Well Did! The Woman Caught In Adultery Did! Zacchaeus Did! David Did! Ruth & Naomi Did! The bible is full of wonderful stories of IMPERFECT people that were LOVED by a PERFECT GOD' Please share your comments and visit on Facebook for group discussion at https://www.facebook.com/groups/AriseNshine4JesusMinistry  Blessings, Stacey Lunsford The Pastor of Poetry
