Thought For The Day
Missteps are not stumbling blocks
they are not
the end of something wonderful
Instead
they are learning tools
They are platforms where we can
take a step back and say
LORD, I LOVE YOU
I NEED YOU MORE AND MORE
AND
THE LORD COMES IN
AND
BEGINS A BRAND NEW EXCITING CHAPTER
SOMETHING THAT
WE NEVER WOULD HAVE FORSEEN
IN OUR HUMANITY
SOMETHING EXCITING
SOMETHING UNBELIEVABLE
AND
AT THAT PRECIOUS MOMENT
WE CAN THEN SAY
You know what?
It is okay not to be perfect
It is okay not to be ideal
because
The Lord loves me so much
and
is working an even more
beautiful work in me!

God bless you all!
Needed that. Thanks :-)
ReplyDeleteSuch a good message! I think that the quest for perfection so often distracts us from the blessings in our own lives, and the blessing we can be in others' lives too... thanks for the thoughts! :)
ReplyDeleteI always go for 80% and teach my kids to do the same. The Law of Diminished Returns (bell curve) proves that going for the last 20% is always counter-productive to achieving the best possible outcome anyways.
