Perfection from Ordinary

Look at this wonderful art created by Christian Faur. The detail in this is really stunning when you see that it is made up of nothing more than crayon tips. Ordinary objects that we have all used since we were 3 years old. I am always amazed when I see work like this, not so much by the complexity of it, but by the thought of creating it. I look at this and realize that my life is no different, ordinary objects put together to create something beautiful.

“For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.” —Philippians 1:6

I see the sin in my life. I see the dull moments. I see the hopelessness of this world. But what I need to have faith in is not what I see, but what I am told by God. I will be perfect no matter what I think now. Not perfection by my own accord, but perfection from Christ.
