Have you ever felt pressured to be a perfect parent? Yet no matter how many techniques you try or books you read, perfection remains out of reach.
On this week’s episode of Adopting Hope, co-host Sasha Parker shares the story of her family of six adopting five more children. For Sasha, the point isn’t perfection. It’s humble honesty about both beauty and brokenness, which she draws from Isaiah 57:15.
“For this is what the high and exalted One says—he who lives forever, whose name is holy: ‘I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.’”
May we all cast aside the pursuit of elusive perfection, and find ourselves near to the place that is both high and holy, contrite and lowly.
