#50: Why It's Okay To Not Have Everything Under Control
Episode description
Christian women are often told to have everything under control. There is constant pressure to be the perfect wife, mother, employee, and so on. But the truth is, you don't have to be perfect. And we definitely don't have to have everything under control. God doesn't expect us to be perfect.
He knows that we are human and that we make mistakes. What he does expect from you and me is to try our best and to trust in Him. So if you're feeling like you're not living up to the impossible standards set for you, don't worry; you're not alone.
We have a duty to cast all our anxieties on Him even as we remain humble under his mighty hand. This results in upliftment for us. Let's not exhaust ourselves when all we had to do in the first place was hand all over to our loving God. He is the one who works things out in our favor in the first place.
