DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andrew Murray emphasizes the profound concept of being 'Perfect in all
the will of God,' which connects our heavenly aspirations with our
earthly lives. He explains that true perfection lies in aligning our
will with that of the Creator, as seen in nature and the obedience of
angels. The ultimate example is Jesus, who achieved perfection through
obedience and submission to God's will, leading to true rest and
fulfillment. This call to live under God's rule challenges us to obey
Him in every aspect of our lives.

'Perfect in Christ.' This thought is so unearthly and divine that its
full meaning eludes our grasp. It makes us think of our life in Christ
and heaven. 'Perfect in all the will of God.' This thought brings us
down to earth and daily life; it reminds us that we must place
everything under God's rule, and calls us to live in his will, obeying
him in our every action and attitude.

The perfection of the creature is simply this: to will the will of the
Creator. Nature has its beauty and glory in being the expression of the
divine will. The angels fulfill their purpose by doing God's will in
heaven. The Son of God was perfected through learning obedience, through
giving himself up to the will of God, which is the only place of true
rest and blessedness.
