So this post doesn't have much to do with anything that's been going on in my life lately. If you want to know about my life for most of this semester, I'll show you my PR Organizations plan book for the Jabberwock Review! You should really buy a copy-- I highly recommend it!
Anyway, this post has more to do with something God reminded of me last week when I was on my way to take my younger sister to get her hair cut. See, I'm weird about trying to look "presentable" when I go to get a haircut because I feel like if I go to a salon with my hair looking bad, the stylist who cuts my hair is going to judge me and think I have bad hair.... I guess you would say I'm insecure like that. It's really a backwards way of thinking though because I'll try to make my hair look like it's totally fine when I'm going to someone else to ask them to fix it. Just by going to get a haircut, I'm admitting that my hair needs help!
It's the same way with God though... I hate to confess sin because I'm hate admitting that I'm broken; that I can't fix myself. I will even try to fix myself and my sin without Him so that I can feel more presentable before Him. How backwards is that? In His Word, God even tells us that His gospel and salvation are for the broken-- not for the righteous. Praise Him for His grace to a sinner like me; that He forgives my frailty so much that He says "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest" Matthew 11:28. God doesn't ask that I fix myself before I approach His throne, He will cleanse every impurity.
