Maybe it’s the clouds…
Maybe it’s the conversation I had last night with my friends…
Maybe it’s the extra-early start to my Monday morning…
Maybe it’s the knowledge that LENT is coming, and I’m getting prepared…
Whatever it is, I’ve been plagued recently by my ideals about the kind of pastor/husband/father/friend I should be and the reality of who I actually am. Most of the time, it feels like there is such a disconnect and I feeling like a failure at all of them. I’m thankful that LENT is coming. I could use some introspection & discipline.
So what is the healthiest way to respond to feelings of overall failure in the roles most significant in our lives?
I have no idea Mandy.
I blogged about it. That surely can’t be the healthiest way! LOL!
well, verbal processing (even written verbal…wait…what?) is always helpful to me. But I also know that encouragement can help, and for what it’s worth I am gaining more and more respect for you in several of the areas that you mentioned as I get to know you. Blessings on exploration, but beware of delving too long or too deep into the cave of introspection
