I made a new friend this past weekend. Her name is Ruthie Dean and she is a terrific writer. Go here to read her blog. I came across a post she wrote a few months ago shortly after she got married. It spoke to my heart in such a strong way. It's good to know that we are not alone in this battle of "i'll never be good enough... thin enough... crafty enough... smart enough... domestic enough..." It's exhausting being so critical of yourself all the time. But I am. All the time. I read Ruthie's post and was so encouraged. We are daughter's of the King who has indeed created us unique; with different strengths and character qualities to enrich the body of Christ.
Ruthie Dean: Life as a MRS:The Comparison Battle
What a great post from Ruthie. Comparison is a daily struggle. I'm so thankful for God's grace through it!
