Intro

Too often, we feel like we have to be perfect before coming to God. But the truth? Jesus meets us in our mess. He loves us where we are—and transforms us as we walk with Him.

Key Scripture

"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." — 2 Corinthians 12:9 Why You Don’t Need to Have It All Together to Follow Jesus

💬 Jesus Meets You in Your Mess Throughout the Bible, Jesus meets people exactly where they are. He ate with tax collectors, touched lepers, spoke to outcasts, and forgave sinners. Not one of them was “ready” or “perfect” when He called them. He didn’t say, “Clean yourself up, then come.” He said, “Come, follow Me.” We often believe the lie that we need to fix ourselves first. But the reality is: We can’t transform on our own — we need Him. ❤️ Let Jesus Transform You Over Time Walking with Jesus isn’t about flipping a magic switch and suddenly being perfect. It’s about daily surrender, step by step, as He shapes you into His image. He loves you right now — not some future version of you that has it all figured out. The journey of faith is less about arriving and more about trusting Him as you go. 🌿 Final Encouragement Friend, Jesus never asked you to have it all together. He simply says: “Come to Me.” Let His love transform you from the inside out. You are loved, chosen, and held — even in your weakness.

Call To Action

Take a deep breath. Write down one area you feel weak in, and ask God to show you His strength there. 👉 Take a deep breath. Right now, grab a notebook or open your phone. Write down one area where you feel weak, overwhelmed, or not enough. Maybe it’s a bad habit, a broken relationship, or a place where you’re just tired. Now, pray this simple prayer: “Lord, I give You this area. Show me Your strength here. Help me trust that You are working even when I feel weak.” Remember, God’s grace meets you today — not once you’re perfect. Paul was no stranger to weakness. In fact, he openly admitted his struggles and hardships. But rather than hiding them or pretending to be strong, Paul boasted in his weakness because that’s where God’s power showed up the most. You don’t have to impress God. You just have to bring your heart, as messy and broken as it is.
