TODAY’S WORD
It’s easy to get down on ourselves because we’re not as far along as we want to be. We focus on our flaws, our shortcomings. Some people live with this nagging feeling inside, telling them something is wrong with them and how they don’t measure up. We put all this pressure on ourselves to change. “I have to be more disciplined…watch my mouth…be a better mother…a better spouse…a better employee.” But God is our potter. He controls the process of changing and shaping you, the when and how fast. The key is to accept yourself while God is in the process.
You’re not supposed to go through life being against yourself, overanalyzing your faults. Focusing on your weaknesses doesn’t help you improve. All that does is slow down the process. It’s good to want to improve, to strive for excellence and grow, but don’t get frustrated if it’s not happening as fast as you’d like. Only God can change some things. Until He gives you the grace to do it, accept yourself where you are. It takes maturity to have peace in the process.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that You are the potter and I am the clay. Thank You for where I am right now, faults and all, and that You hold me in Your hands and are molding and making me. Help me to stop being against myself and to simply trust You with the process for further change. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
