Let me tell you a little bit about the state of my home right now.
There are dishes in the sink that need to be washed. I haven't made my bed in over a week. I have about 6 baskets of laundry to fold. I need to buy more hangers so that I can hang up all the clean laundry. I currently have a to-do list a mile long.
I could keep going.
The reason I'm telling you this is because I want you to know that I'm not perfect. My dear blogger friend, Samantha Elizabeth has started a social media/blog campaign that we all need to be a part of called #banperfection. You can read her full introduction post here.
The truth is that no one is perfect and if we were there would be absolutely no fun in that. We all have our flaws and I am learning not to be embarrassed of them or to hide them... but to embrace them. They are part of us and they make us who we are.
There are so many topics that this can apply to, but the principles of the matter stay the same.
The other day my church put on a General Women's Conference which they do bi-annually, and one of the speakers said something that really fits in with this topic.
God loves us imperfectly, so let's love ourselves and each other imperfectly too.
Let's stand together and #banperfection. We are all perfectly imperfect and let's embrace that.
Join me on social media to #banperfection!
