Beyond Perfection

To all perfection I see a limit; but your commands are boundless.- Psalm 119 v 95

Athletes strive to run the perfect race.
Footballers long to play the perfect pass.
An actor is looking for the perfect role.
A Singer endeavours to hit the perfect note.
A young girl dreams of a perfect wedding.

Perfection is something that we look to achieve.
A destination we long to visit.
Once visited we find that it is a place where we cannot stay.
Imperfection appears so soon.

But God's commands start as perfect and go on from there.
His words are never less than perfect and go beyond,
to a realm that we cannot even begin to understand.

David goes on to say that he could meditate on God's commands all day.
A day is no where near long enough.
The expanse of eternity will not even be enough to bottom our understanding and comprehension of Him and His words.
