Hope! Hope! Hope! As a citizen of the 21st century, we are faced with high demands and higher expectations. Media sending endless messages that teach us how to behave, eat, and dress. Expectations from the media it's almost impossible to reach - but God did not. God does not expect perfection ... and we should not either.
The difference between perfection and unrealistic expectations is the difference between a life of frustration and quiet life. Only God can perfectly, and we all were below standard and need to accept our limitations as we accept the limitations of others.
If you or your spouse shackled by perfectionism, it's time we ask ourselves what we want to highlight and to whom? If you try to make your friends admire or try to imitate Hollywood celebrity appearances, it's time you reconsider your priorities. The first responsibility is to God who created us. Furthermore, it is the responsibility of our families and couples. But if it involves unrealistic expectations from the environment, forget it!
It is time we accept ourselves and our mates. When we do this, we will feel a very heavy burden lifted from his shoulders. In the end, please God just simply obey His commandments. But to please everyone? That's impossible. Matthew Henry said, "We will not find a perfect man, until we have a perfect world." While James Dobson wrote, "The happiest people in this world is not people who do not have a problem, but people who learn to accept things that are not perfect."
~ Accept imperfections themselves. If we are caught up in modern life that leads to perfection, grow up ... Do not burden yourself by unreasonable expectations.
Do not be too hard on yourself. You do not have to be perfect to be wonderful.
