When
it comes to accepting our human imperfections, many of us try to resist it. And
this is evident in the fact that people think of imperfectness as something
that destroys ones self-worth but does it?
What is that one thing
in your life that no one knows about? What are those areas in your life that you use all your
energy to hide? What weakness are you covering up?
When I ask myself these same questions, what comes to
mind is plenty… I really try to hide those days when I really don’t feel like
following Jesus because I keep telling everyone to follow Him.
I have a tendency to over-analyze and over-think. My mind is always set on something to
the point where I have difficult time sleeping. I move from one assignment to the
next assignment and as my responsibility grows I have noticed that my nights
have gotten shorter and my days, longer.
I give myself
excuses as to why I must work so much and so hard but I know most of it is just
foolishness. There's a time to work, and
there's a time to rest.
I love to inform people so I blog but most of you have no idea how hard it is to
put one’s words and thoughts online for anyone who cares to look to see.
Sometimes it difficult, not because of what people will say, but because of
what it shows about my character.
I have said, I am
sorry a million times yet it has not stopped from hurting people I love (unintentionally)…
lol but seriously,
The number one struggle I had for a long time was my fear
of failure. I stay up most night
terrified that I was not going to be a failure until the day I made a bold decision
to give all of my fears to God and have Him mold me into all He wants for me to
become.
Often
we try so hard to be strong that we don't give God the opportunity to be strong
in our lives. And that is wrong. At
some point, you have to give all your mess to God and stop trying to figure out
everything.
It's ok
to feel weak, because God is our strength. It’s ok to feel lonely; God is a
friend that sticks closer than a brother.
He even cares about the situations you put yourself
in... So let go of your pride, take a moment to surrender all that you are to
Him.
The reality is this: We all go through tests
and trails. We all have good and bad days. We all have struggles and although
we all can choose to be positive in the mist of negativity, it is far better if
we surrender all that we are to Him.
Grace is the fact that God
knows every stupid mistake we will make, He knows all of our faults and
struggles yet He still chose love us regardless.
Cover your sins, cover your weaknesses and God will
expose them but expose your sins, expose your struggles and God will cover them.
