i love jesus!

I've been home now for 2.5 weeks, and have spent some time reflecting on the last 7 months, and the last few years..... I have grown so much, through so much. Sometimes I get myself all worked up about a mistake I made  or a mis-communication or places i did not handle properly. Here's the truth though... not a single human is perfect. in fact, its quite the opposite. We sin every day in different ways. If we could always do what Jesus would do, there would be no need for a savior. sometimes i get wrapped up in trying to be as good as i can for Jesus, not because i think i can obtain perfection, but because i want to show the world how much i love and adore my God. But when i mess up, I have to remember that I will mess up and i have to trust the people in my life to have grace and mercy. that is part of trusting God. and when i mess up, all i can do is apologize, be honest and humble, and trust God to see me through. its so scary sometimes but i am getting better. i love Jesus and his redeeming love!
