Who am I, O God?

Whenever I find that my displeasure and frustration with myself outshine my faith in Christ that He has taken care of my sins, I am forced to reflect upon the excellency of Christ. The perfection of God has no polar opposite. There is no "perfect evil" to oppose His perfect holiness. God is perfect at being holy whereas Satan is not perfect at being evil. When I consider this fully incomprehensible aspect of God, in relief the only thing that appears smaller than my sins is me. But praise be to God that He has seen fit to have mercy on me, a sinner, and has ordained a way for me to be with Him and enjoy Him forever through Christ His son!
