Perfection is My Enemy

Checking the Landscape of Our Hearts Because We’re All a Work in Progress

Perfection is My Enemy

“It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect.” – Psalm 18:32

Twenty-three years ago a beautiful soul captivated my heart from her very first breath.

From the moment my middle daughter Ashley was born, I’ve adored, loved, and tried to keep up with her. Her sense of adventure, pure passion for Jesus, crazy love for her family, and intense work ethic makes her a beautiful force of good in this world.

Ashley and her husband David live in California and are preparing to welcome their first child in just a few short weeks! My role as Gigi to my grandchildren is one of my greatest joys and I can’t wait to meet my new grandson and have him join our big, loud, and loving family.

And today we’re thrilled to have Ashley as a guest on the Proverbs 31 Ministries Podcast! I want to invite you into the conversation as she talks about her struggle with perfectionism and how it has affected her life and relationships, “I was so exhausted and I finally decided—physically and emotionally—I just couldn’t do it anymore.”

I really love the wisdom Ashley shares as she encourages us, “The Lord is the only thing that can fill that ache … only God and His plan is perfect.”

If you need hope in the midst of feeling tired and frustrated with always trying to be perfect, you don’t want to miss this episode.
