Exactly.

I suppose I will never be good enough. Even for those whom I think would have thought I was.

But I'm going to daily decide that not being good enough is ok.


In fact, I'm throwing 'good enough' out of the window.
I'm just going to be exactly who I am, and sometimes exactly who I am might be great.
And other times it might be difficult.
There will be times when exactly who I am will be mean and spiteful.
Sometimes free and happy.
A time or two when it will be completely broken.
Even gross.
Yes, gross.
Silly.
Tired.
Beautiful.
Loving.
Jelous.
Hopeful.
Bitter.
Anxious.
Apathetic.
Joyful.
Sick.
(a short list as to not be exhaustive).



There is one thing, though, that I hope will remain a constant among the variables of exactly who I am.

My passion to chase after this love that Jesus allows me to taste each day.
Man, it's good stuff.



Maybe there will be a person who will accept all of this about me. Who will love me for, and in spite of, exactly who I am.

That would be pretty sweet.
But if not, it's ok.

I love this entry.

What is so amazing about God's love for us, is that even in our darkest, stupidest (hence the word!) moment, it doesn't quit. It never ends. How great is the love that the Father lavishes on us. And just like a child to a mother, or a child to a father- a kid in the eyes of a loving parent; We may disobey or not be all He wishes us to be in that moment, but He loves us! He takes us in His arms right were we are. Scabby knees or trophy holder...
Our Abba is proud.
He enjoys us growing up.
He watches and teaches with adoration.

I'm glad to share this journey so closely with you ...

Everyday let's encourage each other to be a little more like Papa Jesus ...

that sounds weird doesn't it? haha

a Savior. a King. a Teacher. a Creator. a Father. a Husband. a Friend.
