I’ve not had a good week this week. I’ve made several silly mistakes which have made me feel inadequate, stupid and wondering if I am good for anything.
This is how I get when I do things wrong. I am very good at telling others “It’s just a mistake, we’re all human, don’t worry about it – get past it” But when it comes to myself, I am very critical and judgemental.
Anyway, yesterday I was thinking about my week and feeling ashamed that I wasn’t as good as I wanted to be, when I thought “You know what? God loves me and is not ashamed of me because he made me. I make mistakes because I’m human and as faulty as everyone else, but even so, God can use me in ways that are amazing! The devil may know how to shame me, but Jesus knows how to save me! And that overcomes anything else in my life.” I thank him for my yesterdays, todays and tomorrows, and wait patiently with hope in my heart for my future.
THANK GOD FOR JESUS!
This is how I understand my God.
