1 year ago I sat at the hospital while my nephew Nathan was having surgery & I jotted this Perfectly Imperfect down!! I knew I wanted that tattooed on me but wasn’t really sure where or the exact font.
What I did know was that I Am made Perfectly Imperfect just the way God wanted me to be.
You see I struggled with this for years. In my eyes I was never good enough. I never deserved happiness. I wasn’t worthy of anything. I was just going through the motions of life. I was hiding behind a bottle of vodka or whatever alcohol I could get.
Even after years of being sober I still felt that way. I wasn’t pretty enough. My body wasn’t beautiful. I had these darn freckles. My teeth weren’t straight. I had scars. I could go on and on about all the ugliness I saw in myself.
Finally about 2 1/2 years ago after finally putting good things into my body. I had a fog lift & I started seeing myself differently. I started having Morning conversations in the mirror. I started telling myself “You Are Enough, You Are Worthy, You Are Beautiful, You Are Amazing, You Are A Child Of God, You Are Successful, You Are Sober, I BeLieVe In You & I would say so many other daily affirmations.
Then I finally BeLieVed it & at that moment I knew that God made me “PERFECTLY IMPERFECT” but to him I Am Perfectly Made!!
The struggles can & are so hard in our society. Always trying to live up to others expectations. Trying to keep up with the Jones.
Guess What? Sometimes the Jones aren’t what you thought they were!! So trust me when I say start BeLieVing in you. If you aren’t there yet remember this. I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!!!
