If I Were Perfect...

If I were perfect...

• I would never do anything wrong.
• I would never feel guilty for the wrong things that I never did.
• I would never give my wife reason to stress or complain.
• I would get my work assignments done three weeks before the deadline.
• I would not need contact lenses.
• I would have great success at anything I touched.
• I would be an inspiration to all mankind.

Of course, if I were perfect...

• There would be people envious of me.
• Some people would look for ways to destroy me.
• As a result, everything I ever did would be scrutenized for imperfections.
• There would be people constantly wanting a piece of the "midas touch."
• That translates to a lot of moochers always with their hands out.

You know, this also means that if I were perfect...

• Jesus would have come to this earth for everybody except me.
• And, therefore, God's greatest gift to mankind would not have been for me.

So, maybe perfection isn't so perfect.
