Repeat with me: “Today, I will not SHOULD on myself.”
Do you “should” on yourself a lot?
I should have it together.
I should be able to do _________.
I should have accomplished this by now.
I should be ________ because I’m a Christian.
“Should” is only useful until it’s not...
...Until you use it to beat yourself up, when Christ already took the beating for you.
So today, I’m going to remember this too, as I experience more pain.
We are all experiencing some form of pain, whether it is physical, mental, emotional, relational financial or spiritual (or combo!)...so can we all agree to be still, rest, and stop “shoulding” on ourselves?!
