I am not an expert on anything. I can pretty much talk about
anything. Government…check. Tabloids…check. Travel…check. Children…check.
Marriage…check. Environment…check. I can even dabble a little in painters and
literature and Princess Kate. But give me 10 minutes and I’m done. I will
quickly have to move on to something different or make a joke. Basically I’m
not great at any one topic.
I am not super talented at anything. I can pretty much do
any activity. Singing…check. Softball…check. Biking…check. Acting…check.
Volleyball…check. Improv…check. I can even dabble a little in ping pong and
cheerleading and competitive chatting. But put me on a team and I’m done. I
will quickly show my limits and make a joke. Basically I’m not great at any one
event.
I am not wonderful at relationships. I am pretty much
everything. Daughter…check. Sister…check. Friend…check. Wife…check. Mom…check.
I can even dabble in co-worker and volunteer and Emcee. But I forget to make
calls. I take forever to answer texts. My inbox is always full. Basically I’m
not great at any one role.
I am not so great. But…
I am loved. I have no reason I should be. I have nothing
really to offer. I have not done anything so terrible or anything so great…I have
just been. I cannot earn or loose the love I have been given. For this I am
truly grateful. I would like to say this love makes me a better at
conversations, activities and relationships, and perhaps it does, but it
doesn’t matter. I am loved.
“Jesus loves me. This I know. For the Bible tells me so…”
True love is God’s love for us…1 John 4:10
…God is Love 1 John 4:8
For God so loved the
world that He gave His only son…John 3:16
So to the lack of wonderfulness I am, I say “Ehh…” and relax
in knowing God loves me just the way I am.
I bet we all feel this way sometimes. It is just good to
remember that we are not the only ones. J
