A Perfectly Imperfect, Beautiful Disaster

Hey guys! I had to write a "letter" ish thing about what you would find if you unwrapped me as a present. (AKA. Who I am inside) So, do y'all think this is good?? :3

     I’m quirky. I love lying in bed with a good Christian-romance novel at 2 A.M. I have an obsession for socks, especially Christmas themed ones. I cry whenever someone shares a sad story or prayer request. I spaz out when someone touches my neck. And I legitimately squealed when I heard about the Veggie Tales sing-along contest. But those are part of what makes me, me!

      I’m annoying. I can’t stop laughing when I should. I am overly blunt when I shouldn’t be. I follow my English teacher’s essay rules, even as I write this.  I run around the church chasing unicorns when I’m on steroids. And I tell WAY too many lame jokes or puns. But that is part of what makes me, me!

     I’m unique. I love to write, sing, and read. I cherish the moments I spend sitting on the swing at my grandparent’s house listening to the birds sing and watching the leaves blow in the breeze. And I enjoy the cool weather when I can bundle up in hoodies and sweaters. But that is part of what makes me, me.

     I’m imperfect. I procrastinate on almost everything. I am terrible at math. I get frustrated at my siblings. I start to hyperventilate when I let fear take precedence in my life. And I can’t focus without moving in some way. But that is part of what makes me, me.

      I am undeserving of God’s grace. I mess up repeatedly. I don’t learn from my past mistakes. I continuously ‘forget’ to read my Bible, or work on AWANA. And I am a sinner. But He forgives me and that forgiveness is part of what makes me, me!

      So, to recapitulate what I’ve written, I am quirky, unique, annoying, imperfect, and undeserving of God’s grace. And when you add all those aspects of my character together, you get who I am. If you take the time to unwrap who I am and look inside the box, instead of just what you see on the outside, you will find exactly what I have written in this letter.  I am a child of God who was created perfectly imperfect and beautiful disaster.
