There is nothing—
Nothing
You ever need to do for the Father to be proud of you
Nothing
~You could flunk geometry twice
~Graduate with a 2.0 GPA
~Date dumb people
~Pledge to love the wrong ones
~Quit jobs without notice
~Get numerous speeding tickets
~Run out of gas perpetually
~Always arrive late
~Burn the dinner
~Forget to make dinner
~Miss your child’s class party
~Hold a grudge
~Wall up your heart
~Stay in your comfort zone
~Self-medicate
~Allow dishes to pile up
~And laundry to go undone
~Spend more money than you make
~Never finish any of the books you start
~Never make time for the in-laws
~Forget birthdays
~Make “To Do” lists during church
~And hate the very people who love you the most
You could do all this—
And the Father would still be proud of you—
Not for what you did or didn’t do…
But for WHO you are.
And you are His Beloved.

Are you striving to
earn God’s favor?
What expectations of
yourself do you need to let go?
Here or somewhere…be real.
Share your journey.
