When You're Tired of Trying to be Perfect

Have you been trying to do all the things, schedule all the things, BE all the things? Have you reached the very end of all you are?

Good. Because in that place, where we are unable to do or even hope, we can better realize that Jesus Himself will perfectly answer our every need.

We so often trade His easy yoke for a heavy burden of our own making, but He is faithful to carry us when you call to Him for freedom.

Friend, we are not called to a life of doing all the things. We are called to a life that is directed by Jesus and, when our to-do list reflects His own, our schedule and pursuits will be bathed in the energy and resources necessary to accomplish them.

We are not called to do all things; we need only to obey Jesus’ will. We are not called to schedule all the things; we need only to rest in Jesus’ strength.

And, my friend, we are not called to be all the things. Because Jesus is already the perfect satisfaction to every to-do list, every time table, and every expectation. We need only find our rest in Him.🌿
