Our basic struggles never really leave us. These are the doors that open and if invited, God allows us to heal incrementally. Shame based perfectionism has always been a challenge for me. Most days I let go and let God. However, recently, I felt the dark night of my soul in prayer. Thinking I’m not doing it right or good enough God revealed to me this morning it is not how I show up, but that I show up steadfast, faithfulness to praise him and that is what’s important to his heart, the orientation of my heart.
My steadfast faithfulness is enough.
Lord, thank you for all you’ve done for me. Please guide my heart, and help me to grow into the person you want me to be. Purify my heart and make me more like you. Guide my path and help me see the plan for my life is in front of me, it is not in the past or the future. I trust I’m exactly where I need to be today.
In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen
