Love your perspective Rocky!

Joseph wasn’t perfect and he wasn’t the son of God. However he WAS a man that went out of his way to love and forgive. Maybe you could do that too. Perhaps you can’t be Jesus, but you can be Joseph

I am sure that you did a great job of being Joseph in that Christmas musical.  If people are too hung up on being perfect they are in for a rough life.  I don't know anyone that is perfect.

Good morning, Rocky. A wonderful message for the Christmas season. I think life would be much easier on many people if they let go of the idea that they had to be the perfect Christian, parent, brother, sister, etc. Perfection is simply unatainable... besides who can really define it?

Great insight! Thanks for sharing! 

There's no such thing as perfection, just striving for excellence. (I heard that somewhere, not sure who said it, but it seems true to me!)

The interesting thing is that there are Christian churches who make their followers believe there ARE specific things that must be done in order to be forgiven, etc.

Good morning Rocky Dickerson - that really is wonderful story to share. Wishing you a Merry Christmas.

Rocky there was only one perfect person to walk this earth, and he was hung on a cross for it.

Hi Rocky- ok...the next time you and Brian England meet up, he needs to video you doing a song and dance. 

Morning Rocky.

A role in which I am sure you enjoyed.  Memories, I'll leave it at that.

Good Thursday morning, Rocky. 

Take care, be safe and have a wonderful Christmas Eve.

We have rainy weather in Maryland and will be staying at home.

I'm happy Kathy Streib featured this today. I might have missed it completely, and that would have been a shame. Thank you for a lovely post. 

Thank you - lovely post with much to think about.

Good afternoon Rocky Dickerson ,

I was glad to see Kathy Streib featured it in her "Ah-ha" moments for the week! What a great post to share especially at this time of the year. Hope you had a joyful Christmas as we head down the week to celebrating a new year!

Oh my gosh, my first thought when the woman said she wasn't a perfect Christian was, "WAIT! There is no perfect Christian!"

You nailed your advice, Rocky and look what came to you as a result. You don't think anyone but, Jesus had anything to do with guiding you to write that and the local church phoning you to be Joseph, do you?! WOW! I have Godbumps! 

And, the WWJD - too funny but, my mind went where you said a lot of people fall - to the, "I am not sure what he would do - I need to pray about this!!" 

Well, 'Joe' there are no perfect people only those that think they are and they are thinking wrong,  The best we can hope to be is more good than bad.

Good Morning Rocky Dickerson 

Amen and Amen. We are the Innkeepers of our hearts. Do we have room for Jesus in our Inns?

I always strive to be kind with my time which is the most priceless asset we have because when used, you can never get it back. 

Love love love this post!  I openly admit I am not perfect.  There was only one perfect person that ever walked the face of the earth and he was crucified.  I don't look good in that pose!  I can relate to Joseph though.  However, this year, my role was a bit different . . . aka Santa. :)
