Is anything perfect?

Hi! Hope you have made it through another week of time. I just thought I would say time since my last post I talked about time. It was another busy/crazy week, but we did what we could in the time that we had to get payroll prepped for payday today. As one of my Bible study group leaders told me on Tuesday night, she prays and asks God to multiply her time to get things done. I don't think I had ever thought of that, or at least it's been a while since I have done so. I'll have to keep that in mind for future. All four of us in payroll were given the order to have this weekend off (after having worked so many hours the last couple weeks), so I am up to my ears in free time. Okay, maybe not that much. I'll find things to do, I'm sure.
Oh, today was payday and this morning went by SO FAST! We were all busy getting phone calls and emails from people who were saying their checks were not right, missing hours, charged for something they don't have (blackberries...not the ones you eat), the location of their check, and so on and so forth. It is good to have an evening at home, and I am looking forward to having a good weekend.
I had mentioned in my last post, last Saturday I went to a good sister-in-Christ's house and had breakfast with her and about four other sisters-in-Christ from our Bible study group last year. It was nice to chat and catch up somewhat, and she had made a casserole that she was testing on us she'd never made before. Then after leaving there, I went to my niece's v-ball tourney closeby and got to see her team play two rounds worth. They had lost the first round in the morning but won the second round. In the afternoon, they won their first round, and played the second round right away (after some warm-up). They lost the second round but played well.
One last thing to share before I blog off. I was listening to KLOVE on my way home last night from work. They have been having their fall pledge drive. One caller called in with a matching gift of up to $10K and for everyone that called in, they would match it for the whole year. Usually on things like that, it's just for the first month. One song had played (I think it was MercyMe, God with us) and they said that they had reached that mark. In just ONE song, enough callers had called in with pledges to reach the $10K!! WOW! OH! They were going to end the drive at 6:00 but they had decided with the number of calls coming in, they would go into OT for 24 hours. God is amazing and to think that He called upon people to pledge to a good radio station that changes lives for Him. Just thought I would share that encouraging word.
Oh, about my title, I thought I would have that, as this was the first payroll and it was not perfect. Of course, many things on the first try are not perfect. There is one and only one thing that I can think of that IS perfect...
"Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love." 1 Jn 4:17-18
