PERFECTIONISM

Many of us have a tendency to be our own worst critic?

Each of us has a definition of perfection but who is right. There is only one man that achieved perfection, that one is Jesus Christ! We will never reach that level of perfection but that is what we are to aim for.

The problem for me is I would beat myself up while leaving Grace out of the equation, this elevates the shame and guilt.

One of the greatest phrases I have heard is “Progress not Perfection” this says it all! The goal is to be moving in the direction of perfection and comparing myself to “who I was-Who I am & to whom I want to be” as a Christian I want to be more Christ-Like.

Where in your life do you need to stop beating yourself up?
