having good character

Hi there.
How's things?
Today, I want to talk to you about character, and what makes you stick through the hard times.
I'm always thinking and at work, I do a lot of thinking, I think about my friends there, I think about my jam, that I hope to make tomorrow, I think about how to bless others, and what I can do.
And it's so easy isn't to look at someone else, to say to yourself. "I'm no where near perfection, not like that person, or that someone who just sees a need and does it.''
You know, God isn't looking for perfection in us, he isn't looking for that right person, because let's face it, we're never going to be perfect, but we know the perfecter of our faith.
I have some very dear friends, who just care so much about me, always sending me cards of encouragement, and just those little times in my life when I was wondering what life is all about, another card or note would come in the mail, or a text, or something to make my day brighter.
And this is God in them, using those opportunities to reach out, to me, and help me, because he helped them, they saw a need and they did it.
Are we missing that need?
Are we just going through the motions, and not seeing it?
Is there unforgiving there that you know you need to put right, but you're too afraid of?
Are you always on the look out for that thing just out of your reach?
Jesus is the answer, my friend, and I don't mean it in a cliche way, but he knows what your going through, when all  you want to do is scream.
And it's how you see yourself as well,  are you critical of yourself?
Or are you contented in yourself?
Are you feeling like you're on the look out for that ''special, if only I got that.'' the world might be a better place type scenario.
Life isn't always going to be sunny, in fact it can be quite stormy at times.
So my encouragement to you, is keep going strong, keep, knocking at heavens door, keep persisting, with your prayers, because they will get answered, in ways that succeed all human understanding.
