The Field Notes of Mr. Joey
Revised.

I was going to post something entirely different, but here’s all I have to say tonight: If you are aiming for something that can be given to you by the hands of men, then aim higher.

In light of expectation and approval, we will never be good looking enough, smart enough, strong enough, or quick enough.

We will never value who we are if we keep pretending that success means getting something or becoming someone. Success is selfish selflessness.

Take joy in your strength and what you are able to do because of it. Take joy in your weakness, because you know that He will be glorified in it.

If we never learn to love ourselves for who we are, we will never be able to love others. Ever.
