A Perfect Eternity

I heard Michael Coren speak recently and first, he is hilarious (but then again, I laugh at everything) and politically outspoken, which I love, but second, he said some fantastic things.

"God doesn't guarantee a good life...He guarantees a perfect eternity."
Most of his talk, though, was centred around the question, "Are you complete?" Do most people think they are complete? Are they content with their lives? But REALLY, are you REALLY complete?
I think it's so amazing to be able to say that YES, I AM COMPLETE! At times when things seem to be falling apart, I can say for certain that there are Strong, Capable Hands holding me together. And though I may crack, I will not ever completely crumble. I was made complete when I accepted that nothing I could ever do on my own would ever make me deserving of spending eternity with God. I was made complete when I accepted the free gift He held out to me, His gift of forgiveness. I can't be complete on my own.
So, are you complete?
I am.

you should tell Jerry Maguire about this message... i hear he's relying on single moms with cute bespectacled kids to fill the void.
