Perfection and Dysfunction

  There are many things in life that cannot survive without commitment and perfection - love and commitment in marriage, celibacy in the priesthood, remission from cancer... Even a 99% faithfulness in marriage (1% adultery), 99% exercise of celibacy (1% fling), or 99% remission from (1% unexcised) cancer leaves a vulnerability to infidelity that corrupts the soul, the body, and all relationships linked to them.  

Best Effort

God expects us not to be perfect. He simply wants us to do our best. And if that best still falls short, which must be expected to happen many times if not all the time, He will provide the rest. (Photo by Zachary Kaufman/The Columbian)
