Becoming a Better You
from Kingdom Influence Media | Christian Podcast Hosted by Ya Girl Renae
One thing I’ve learned while working on myself, growing spiritually, and trying to build a better life is this: perfection was never my assignment. There is only one perfect being, and that is God. The Bible makes this clear. Ecclesiastes 7:20 tells us that there is not a single righteous person on earth who always does good and never sins. That truth alone should take a lot of pressure off our shoulders.So many of us struggle, feel stuck, or walk around frustrated because we’re trying to be something God never called us to be. We beat ourselves up over mistakes, replay our failures, and feel like we’re never “good enough.” But the problem isn’t that we’re failing—it’s that we’re trying to operate in a role that belongs to God alone. Judgment, perfection, and complete righteousness are not our jobs.Becoming a better you doesn’t mean becoming flawless. It means becoming honest, teachable, and obedient. Growth starts when you can say, “I made a mistake,” without letting that mistake define you. God already knows we’re going to mess up—that’s why grace exists. That’s why Jesus exists.
