Desperate: Chapter 1

Here are a few of my favorite quotes from this chapter:

• I’m so scared of messing up.
• Because I couldn’t achieve my unrealistic goals, I became lifeless and depressed. I didn’t even want to try anymore. “Why bother?”
• She was what God never asked us to be apart from Him: perfect.
• I want to set realistic goals that fit who I am, and what God requires of me.
• He will provide all we need for the task He has given us to fulfill.
• Understanding that the best and most lasting “work” I would ever do was wrapped up in my call as a mother gave me a grand scope for my life such as I had never known before.
• … motherhood is a process, a journey.
