Being Perfect


“Racial pain may be the lot of dark people, but God doesn’t have to explain it. I just have to trust the Lord to direct me through it. I realize, finally, that God never expected me to be perfect. Man did. And woman, And white folks. And black folks. The world did. But all the while, the Lord was saying, “Child, you’re ok with me. Being perfect is my business. Being is yours.”
