We want all our flaws, character weaknesses and defects within us to go away. We see them as burdens and of no use to others. But wait. Maybe some of these are not meant to go away completely. Why? So that seeing our own fragility, shortcomings, we might have some compassion for the weaknesses and shortcomings of others. We might become a bit more accepting and forgiving of the humanness of those around us. This too can be a healing within ourselves and for others. People can be so burdened by shame and guilt. And those who feel perfect or superior will deliver whatever shame and guilt is lacking. Pray that your defects will not overwhelm you today, and that they become diminished to the extent that you can be of service to others.
