I slick on my Revlon Cherry Ice lipstick. My go-to red lipstick, bright and glittery. I use it when I need a pick-me-up, and I needed one today.
It’s all my fault too. I stayed up late last night, catching up on my online class lectures and readings because I procrastinated. I thought I was over that, procrastination. But time management was never my biggest strength. In fact, it’s a big weakness.
We all have weaknesses that we just can’t seem to shake. I used to be one of those kids who had to be perfect because I was scared of what will happen if I fail. I was scared of what my family would think of me, of what my friends would say, and I was super scared that God won’t love me anymore.
What a mindset!
But God loves us weaknesses and all. God loves us on our best days and on those days when we need a pick-me-up. So slick on your red lipstick, order your favorite coffee, breathe, and relax. That’s what I’m doing 🙂 Join me?
Great reminder that God loves us in our weaknesses. Visiting from FMF.
Returning the FMF visit. 🙂 I, too, am a recovering perfectionist. The Lord is teaching me to see my life as a work-in-progress rather than as falling constantly short. And it is so true – He loves us anyways.

Kudos to you that you have a non-calorie pick-me-up. Mine always come in either the chocolate of coffee variety. But caloric or not, I’ll take you up on the offer to stop, breathe and savor. Thanks!
I’ll take chocolate or coffee too! Thanks for stopping by 🙂
