we are not perfect

Although I am still present in my stories (Instagram), this has been a time in which I have refrained from immediate publications on my profile, those who read me will know that a few weeks ago I published that at this time the Lord has been showing me things about myself, revealing my heart, enabling me, I could say, teaching me.

But just as the Lord has been showing me, so the enemy has done, do not believe that when you go through a process of God the enemy will not be able to come and want to confuse you, and even that is part of the process, God allows it, Mental struggles that make you wonder if you are really good for what you are trying to do, for what God has called you, questioning even the call itself, not God.

Questioning if I'm really ready to submit to the spotlight, criticism, derogatory comments, people who vent their bitterness on me just because, and maybe some will say that I share too much of my internal battles, but you know what? I do not want that when in a few years the Lord puts me in some notorious place people think that it was overnight, and still, if he does not put me anywhere, I want those who know me not to wonder where I came from, and How did I change, and if they do, here will always be the sign that nothing is overnight, as Christians we also have strong mental struggles.

That is precisely the problem of this generation of believers, we want to appear perfection and that we are too good for these things to happen to us, that is why people are always ready with the stone in hand to throw it when a Christian fails, and even worse when they are the same Christians who have the stone in hand, because we live by pretense and we are not real with what we feel and what God is capable of doing with those feelings.

Just as they did with a famous Christian singer when she admitted that she was suffering from postpartum depression, they practically riddled her, because for society we are not supposed to experience these things, "because those who have Christ should not suffer depression," have you put to think if it is the same Christ who wants you to go through these things so that you are empathic with those who suffer?

I am not willing to live in that deception and much less to preach a perfection that only Christ has, while we are on this earth we will be subject to afflictions and to make mistakes, and to cry and to fear, and to doubt, it is up to us to remain in that or Allowing Christ to glorify himself in the midst of our weakness, I choose to let Him glorify himself.
