Theo-104 Reflection Paper 06/07/13 Introduction: After being disciplined for something I had done wrong‚ my dad would often tell me that we are all a work in progress. That we would never reach perfection till our Redeemer comes for us again but that He still extends His grace toward us. He would often say‚ “It’s not how many times you fall that count Bill.
