‘Couldn’t be better’—already perfect
A dear friend of mine, if you asked him how he was doing any time of the day or night, would frequently say, “Couldn’t be better.” He was an active person and must have had different trials, family matters to attend to, business issues, and world concerns like many of us. How could he reply, as he so often did, with this positive response that he couldn’t be better? Rose-colored glasses? Not too smart? Out of touch?
No. As he put it, it was a constant reminder to himself that in fact, as the beloved and perfect child of God—Father-Mother, divine Love, who is all-governing, all-intelligent, and all-embracing—man can’t be outside God’s infinite love and infinite good. As that man, God’s image and likeness—which is the true being of each of us—we couldn’t be better, because we are eternally perfect.
As God’s image and likeness—which is the true being of each of us—we couldn’t be better, because we are eternally perfect.
