bible verse, god's word, inspirational verse, perfectionism, http://bec4-beyondthepicketfence.blogspot.com/2016/05/sunday-verses_21.html
Happy Sunday! Do you strive to be superwoman (or superman)? Do you try to create a perfect, pretty image, never letting your ugly, "rusty" side show? While I certainly try not to complain and focus on the negative, I dislike the "perfect personas" we often share because it creates feelings that our lives aren't measuring up to others. We see our friends and family smiling and having the most wonderful time together and we start to compare and think that we need to live up to some standard of perfection. Let's STOP! Let's be real with each other and let people know our lives are not without faults and struggles, sins and tough things. Let's share the fantastic, fun stuff, but let's also share the hard stuff and let our friends know we don't have it all together. And, that is okay because we thankfully have a Savior who does! Amen?
