Truth

Life is not always easy, simple, or fair.  This world is challenging, confusing, tempting, and secular.

And I'm not perfect.  Sometimes I am a drama queen.  Sometimes I swear.  Sometimes I'm selfish.  Sometimes I make bad decisions.  Sometimes I don't act my age.  Sometimes I am ungracious and unkind.  Sometimes I say things I don't mean, or things I do mean that shouldn't be said out loud.  Sometimes I enjoy gossip and contribute to it.  Sometimes I am a coward.  I am guilty of all of this and more. I am never perfect.  I am never deserving.  But somehow I am always forgiven and my account always reads: full.

Your grace is enough.  If it weren't, I would have screwed it all up a long time go. 

"Self destruction is one of my spiritual gifts."- Lon Solomon
