Currently its 1:30am, and I am thinking about the world. There's a current question in my head, why do we try to be perfect? If you actually think about it, we spend our lives trying to please people: parents, boss', friends, family, neighbors, even a random stranger sitting next to you at the bus stop. I mean like If you really think about it, why do we try to do this? We actually spend our lives trying to please other human beings. We put a pressure on ourselves to make ourselves seem perfect. We need to make ourselves look good, make sure we get the perfect grades, and what for? (Not saying you shouldn't get good grades) But Jesus does not care if you do. You can literally have a jacked up life and Jesus still loves you.
There's this thing that people don't really remember all the time, God made you. He didn't make you to be perfect in the world's eyes, he didn't make you have life and not struggle at all. Every single piece of you, every single strand of hair was created to perfection. Every single detail, every single freckle was made. Your passion was made specially for you, your spouse was also. We constantly change ourselves to be perfect. God has your whole life that he wants you to live planned out, and trust me it's beyond your wildest dreams (Literally). But if we constantly try to please other humans, and not God, then you will never reach your full potential. Your neighbors, your friends, won't help you getting into Heaven.God wants you to run to him, and he's going to tell you that you are perfect. Every single hair that falls out of your bun, is perfect. The way you wake up in the morning, is perfect. Every single thing that the world has told you is an imperfection, it is not, because you are perfect. God is perfect, and guess what? He created you in his image. He created the skies, and the little tiny bee collecting pollen from a flower, and both of those are perfect.
So whenever you feel a pressure to be something you're not, or if you're just feeling insecure about yourself remember that you are perfect. You are so loved and cherished beyond your wildest dreams by someone who wants the best for you. He created you for something specific and just amazing that he has a plan for. He created every single little detail of you. He wants you to be you, not the worldly you.

All honesty I was just jamming to this song for about an hour, and I just thought I should share it with you. Whenever you feel down, and insecure, just listen to this song. I'll also add the lyrics (Even though they're on the video)

[Verse 1]
You drew the lines of my fingerprints
I'm the design, You're the artisan
You wrote the tales of my destiny
And on every page reads Your love for me

[Chorus 1]
You know me better than I know myself
Your ways are higher than anything else
You have the plan far beyond all my wildest dreams
Just like You paint the fiery skies
You chose the color of my eyes
From the start until the end of time
You're in the details, You're in the details

[Verse 2]
You map the road of my traveling
You never let go, no, You're here with me
In every high, low and in between
You are my one and only consistency

[Chorus 1]
You know me better than I know myself
Your ways are higher than anything else
You have the plan far beyond all my wildest dreams
Just like You paint the fiery skies
You chose the color of my eyes
From the start until the end of time
You're in the details, You're in the details

[Post-Chorus]
You're in, You're in, You're in
You're in the details, details, details
You're in the details

[Chorus 2]
You know me better than I know myself
Your ways are higher than anything else
You have the plan far beyond all my wildest
All my wildest, all my wildest dreams

[Verse 3]
You set the moon to pull the tide
You speak and move this heart of mine
From the start until the end of time
You're in the details, You're in the details

When it’s 2am, what do you think about. It’s dark, it’s storming outside, and you’re in bed crying. You feel like a meteor is about to crash and hit your perfect little world. You were never prepared for this moment. You instantly start regretting everything, you regret who you are, and who you’ve been acting like. You’re mad at the fact that you got into bed with your significant other, and there’s no way you can take back that one night. You’re mad at your grades, and you feel like you won’t be able to get into college. All of these regrets, all of these mistakes just hit you. You’re shaking and terrified at who you’ve become. Who did you invite into the dark with you? Who did you allow to get into your head so late at night? The devil. He’s the only person on this earth who can make you regret every single decision you have ever made. Every single mistake, will start killing you. Instead of thinking of all the good times that you’ve had throughout your life, you let yourself sit in the darkness. You allowed to be surrounded with darkness instead of the light. The light switch is just across the other side of the room. You can choose to switch off the devil and turn on God. Instead of curling into bed and crying yourself to sleep, you can think about the good memories. You can remember every single blessing that God has blessed you with. You had the opportunity to actually wake up that morning and live your life, while some other people were not that lucky. No one has ever had to prepare you for what was going to happen at 2am, and it’s because God never wanted it to happen in the first place. You can choose to be lonely, and sit in the dark, or you can choose happiness, and light. God is in control of every single thing, he never wanted you to feel alone, and worthless. He wants you to invite him into your life, and turn that switch on and be in the light. When you’re surrounded in darkness, you will shine beyond the stars, you can even be the light to others who are still in the darkness. Choose to invite God into the darkness, and he will help you be the light.
