Perfection is Exhausting

Perfection will wear you out…Trying to be the perfect spouse, parent, friend or employee is exhausting. We end every day wishing we could have done more, regretting what we did that wasn’t quite up to “our standards” or regretting what we didn’t do. Unfortunately, we also carry that need for perfection over to our spiritual life. Always striving but never attaining causes nothing but stress and feelings of guilt. You and I are a work in progress. We will have successes and failures but both are taking us to the place God has planned for us. Relax! God is on your side!
