Get This!

You need to get this,
really get this.
God fights your battles.
You don’t have to be perfect,
obsess about botching up,
tizz in terror at your own ineptness
worry about disasters of your own making.
You don’t have to be intimidated
by judgmental, self-righteous people.
Trust as you pray.
Set your mind to obey.
Do the best you can.
He will make things okay, or if
He doesn’t, He’ll work
the messes out for your good.
You are learning and growing,
a work in progress.
You are not and never will be perfect,
in this life.
You are a diamond in the rough,
  but God sees you as a flawless
through the lens of Christ’s sacrifice.
