The Freedom in Admitting You’re Not Perfect

My point in writing this is to let you know that it’s OK to not have it all together. None of us do, and that’s the reason God sent Jesus. It’s OK to not have all the answers. And it’s OK to admit to others if you need help. I don’t have it all together, which is the beauty of having God in my life. He loves me regardless of if I have it all together.

Don’t feel pressured to be anything other than who God has called you to be. Ignore the opinions of others, and yearn to reflect an honest and authentic version of yourself each and every day that passes. Everyone has a highlight reel, but don’t forget that we also all have outtakes.

There is freedom in admitting we’re not perfect. We must allow ourselves to be human, make mistakes and break the chains of bondage that come when we try to act as someone we’re not. We’re not perfect and we never will be. Let your imperfections shine.

Jarrid Wilson was a husband, pastor and author relentlessly sharing the love of Jesus. In September of 2019, Jarrid tragically passed away by suicide. He is survived by his wife, Juli, and his two sons, Finch and Denham. His larger than life personality, heart for all people and passion for telling others about the grace and love of Jesus was unmatched, and he is greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. We stand on the promise of Revelation 21:4 that reminds us that in heaven, there is no more sorrow, suffering or death. Hope gets the last word.
