Yet we just can't seem to get there?
Our dreams, our goals, our desires...
Seemingly so close, yet always just out of reach.
I want to be a better mom. I want to be a better wife. I want to be a better daughter, sister & friend.
I want to show my kids, by example, what they should strive to be.
I want to point them to Jesus.
But so often I am afraid that the only things I am pointing them to are all of the ways not to be.
All of the things not to do.
All of the words not to say.
Unfortunately... I fail. I hurt them. Everyday.
I hurt myself. Everyday. And I hurt HIM. Everyday.
But, I will continue to try harder!
I will reach for that maybe unattainable goal, but never give up on the trying.
I will teach my kids that they may never be able to keep from falling, but they can always ask forgiveness and try again.
There is hope. There is always hope.
