Too often we struggle and stress about trying to be perfect and we get distracted by perceptions of perfection which are ridiculous and simply unattainable. I hope that this worship helps to encourage everyone that there is a better idea of perfection than the world's and that we are all perfect in some way or another. As always, please leave a comment to share with everyone else.

In God's eyes we are perfect, help us to see through him. We spoke about not being perfect, but being wonderful and loved. What is perfect? Look in the mirror and you shall see. We spoke about being true to yourself and not being too concerned about Social Media/ Fake mess. (Not everything that glitters is gold) ##### 6W *7 October 2024* Thank you for this thought-provoking worship. It was an interesting link between the beauty of the shells and how ww are perfect even with our imperfections. Have a lovely week! From all in 6W! ##### 1SW *7 October 2024* We should be who we are an try not to be perfect. God loves everyone. ##### Mr Mackley *7 October 2024* Thank you for your lovely comments.
