You see, you will never know if you’ve prayed enough, read your Bible enough, tithed enough, attended church enough, been on enough mission trips. More important than that, you will never ever truly feel accepted.
Perfectionism is a thief. It promises rewards, but it steals joy and satisfaction. Why? Because perfection is an unattainable goal.
If you are a perfectionist, you have set an impossible goal for yourself and therefore you will be constantly faced with frustration and failure.
Ephesians 1:6 says, “To the praise of the glory of His grace, wherein He hath made us accepted in the Beloved.” How does God make you accepted? By His grace. Not by your attainment, works, or striving. Grace is completely contrary to human nature. Human nature wants to live by guilt and not by grace.

By day he is a self-employed non-emergency medical transport driver, and is the Editor-in-Chief for the National War Council, as well as being a political analyst, author, blogger, and an accomplished DIYer. His articles are first published on Inspirational Christian Blogs, and I Am Not Ashamed of the Gospel of Christ!, and from there the articles are published on other well-known conservative websites.
The author feels convinced that the Church is in extreme danger of being forsaken by God for being unbiblical and seeks to warn all those with “ears to hear.” He believes we are in the last days of the end times, and that God is building His Remnant Church even now.
