So What if It's Cracked

Last week I found a beautiful rock. Not a random find but for sale in a store. The beauty in this rock was its color, design, purpose, and price! I love rocks but I'd prefer to find them as opposed to buy them. This one had a space carved out for a tea light and I love lighting candles in the winter during  my reading and devotion time. This one was quite cheap so I bought it. When I got home I pulled out some other items first forgetting the rock was still in there. It fell to the floor. I scooped it up, unwrapped it and set it on the mantle.  Later when I lit the candle inside, I noticed a crack from the center of the design to the rough exterior. It was still functional and was still beautiful but I was disappointed at the damage I had caused. I look at that rock and think about me. God made me in his perfect image. But I have a crack. What does He think of me now? I'm still functional and in his eyes  I'm still beautiful, but I really am damaged goods. I'm not perfect. When He looks at me is He sad because I sin daily? I'm sure I can grieve Him easily but that's why we had Christmas. Jesus came as God's Assurance that even though we aren't perfect, we are still  his children and can serve Him in many ways. I may be damaged goods to the world but I'm  perfect through the righteousness of Jesus.
Be blessed by the Lord this week and highly favored.
