Most of you have heard the old cliche, "If the shoe fits..." right? Well if you haven't it goes a little something like this:
If the shoe fits... wear it!
So what are the alternatives? The imperfect Christian came up with a few alternatives:
You could expose yourself to harmful environment and go barefoot.
You could continue to wear the shoe and continue to wear the stench that goes along with it.
Or you can get a new pair of shoes!
Sometimes we grow out of them, and at other times they just need replacing.
So today is a perfect day that HE has made for us to rejoice and be glad in. Today is a perfect day for the imperfect one (and you too), to change shoes, attitude, and spirit.
What Websters says about "Change" (Transforming)
Definitions:
1. To change the form of; to change in shape or appearance; to metamorphose; as, a caterpillar is ultimately transformed into a butterfly.
2. To change into another substance; to transmute; as, the alchemists sought to transform lead into gold.
3. To change in nature, disposition, heart, character, or the like; to convert.
4. To change, as an algebraic expression or geometrical figure, into another from without altering its value.
5. To be changed in form; to be metamorphosed.
What the Word says about "Change" (Transformation)
Romans 12:2 "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." (KJV)

The imperfect Christian has this struggle daily, and the change is ongoing. I pray to see His good, acceptable, and perfect will in my imperfect life. To God be the glory in my greatests accomplishments and hardest falls. To God be the glory.
Until the next one! Peace, Blessings, and Joy... that real PB&J!
