God's perfection is manifested in correction...

God corrects you to make you right...not wrong. If you're open to correction, you can be fully used by God. He created you to do the good works He planned long ago-you're His masterpiece (Eph 2:10). Walking out the plans God destined for you keeps you satisfied all the days of your life (Ps 91:16). Correction is God's help to you so you can walk out His promises. He's committed to correct you in order to give you every opportunity to fulfill the plans He's made for you-this involves Him...sculpting, shaping, pressing, squeezing, delaying, detouring, testing, giving, withholding, tearing down & taking away things at different times in your life. Welcome trials-they test your faith & when your faith is tested, your endurance grows. Some trials you bring on...others are brought on you-either way, God's correction is your opportunity to develop in both of them. Ask God for insight & He will pour it out generously (James 1:2-4). God's correction allows His perfection to be manifested through you-His love is made perfect in your weakness (2Cor12:9). Let God have His way with you-making you right with His love. Be confident of this-the good work He started in you...He will bring to completion (Phil 1:6). God never abandons His masterpieces-don't abandon the Master...He's madly in love with you! His correction makes you right...not wrong-will you let Him make you right today?  9/11/13CiFL-LMM
