Living Without Expectation of Perfection

As we near the end of our week on forgiveness, today we’re going to look at a more foundational aspect of forgiveness, living without expectation of perfection.

The goal today isn’t to adopt a pessimistic way of looking at the world around us, but to actually see others the way that God does. God isn’t surprised by our sin, but looks at us with eyes of hope and love. May we gain his perspective today, and the peace and joy that accompany it, as we spend time in his word and his presence.

Our Scripture for today comes from Romans 3:23, and today's worship is See A Victory/What A Beautiful Name by Jonathan Traylor.
