Inadequate. Do you ever feel that way?

It’s funny, I feel that way about so many things lately {laundry, dishes, cooking, weight loss, wife, daughter, friend} yet I have so little motivation to change. I want to change, have a strong desire to change, but when it comes down to it, very little happens. Bogged down. Overwhelmed. Stuck.

My loving husband reminded me today that we are all inadequate. ALL of us. We fall short of being perfect and have endless flaws. And it’s OK. If we didn’t have gaps and inabilities we wouldn’t need a solution, a Savior.

Christ was adequate, more than adequate – perfect. I need to keep reminding myself that through HIS strength I can accomplish things. I need to keep admitting my inadequacies, be transparent and open, accept my weakness and then, THEN I can be strong.

More of Him, less of me and my world is a whole lot less bogged down and overwhelming. Stuff gets done, praise is given and true JOY and satisfaction start to take over.

Inadequate?

Yup! {but I’m not worried about it anymore}
