The embodiment of perfection

I am not a perfect human being, I am far from being perfect, but I am an imperfect child of God, who is in the process of being a better version of myself and being more likely to Jesus Christ. I am still working hard and sometimes I fall more than I expected but I´ve learnt that it´s okay because my Abba is always there to lift me up, hold me, love me, kiss me, cleanse me, and forgive me.

I am His daughter, imperfect yeah, but His child.

As a pastor once said, nowadays we´re trying to be chosen, to be seen, to be perfect, to be loved and admired. Nowadays we try so hard to show that we are leading a perfect happy life because we want to be noticed and chosen and admired and loved, but in the end, it´s a fake.

And looking into my life I realised that I´ve been trying to be chosen and loved by people who don´t even care about me. They just don´t care.

But what he also said was that we´ve already been chosen and loved and cared for and cherished for who we are, the real us, our true self, without make-up or disguise or mask, nothing less nothing more, without filters, pretensions, not with our fake smiles or comments we show people through different social media or in a day to day basis.

We´ve been chosen and loved just for what we are.

Our best and our worst versions of ourselves are known and still, He chose and loved and died for us. He gave his all. We´ve been bought by Christ´s blood.

So why are we faking our lives, why are we hiding behind a wall, a curtain. We all have imperfections, physically, emotionally, and spiritually and it´s okay.

Jesus is never going to judge or criticise you. He will never make fun of you or make others laugh at you.

So why seek people´s approval or attention when they are not interested in knowing you? You know, to be close, intimate.

Why are we miserable when we can be joyful and whole in Him when we can live our lives at the fullest being as we are?
