Tired

As corny as it may seem, "I am TIREd"! Brent took this photo at Daytona last month and I love his eye for the unusual. He knows how I think and what I like when he takes photos for me. This has been one of those weeks when I have taken one step forward and 10 steps backward and as I reflect on what I have and have not accomplished; I find myself feeling like a car that is missing a tire (almost useful, just one tire short of getting somewhere).

I know that things were accomplished this week and I do know that I have such high expectations for what I think I should be able to, that I will never feel content as I reflect on the day. That is what I am learning, to be imperfect, imbalanced and okay with being that way. I have to remind myself that only God is perfect. It really isn't my job to be perfect, it is my job to trust God and glory in his perfection. If I make a mistake, I recognize my fault, pray, deal with it and enjoy what God has for my life.

Psalm 27:4-5
" The one thing I ask of the Lord—
the thing I seek most—
is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
delighting in the Lord’s perfections
and meditating in his Temple.
For he will conceal me there when troubles come;
he will hide me in his sanctuary.
He will place me out of reach on a high rock."
