We as humans can be hard on ourselves at times. We may do our absolute best, and still hold ourselves to impossible standards. There may be days where we can really do awesome! Other days, where all we can offer is the best that we’re able to give, that day. I live with a physical condition that at times can make doing simple tasks, harder. Today was one of those days. Being that I know how I am on the days where I’m doing really well; it was hard not being able to live up to that expectation today. I had to remind myself, that although my best wasn’t to my usual standards, it was the best that I could offer. I’m grateful that God gave me strength, just to get through today. Friends, we all have our own situations, at times, where things are harder. It’s ok to just lean on God, give it your all, and know that it was enough. May we trust God on those hard days, trust God to be our strength through it all, and know it’s ok to just simply do our best. Even if our best may vary from day to day.
