Given my last post on needing to be gracious to myself, I thought I'd include a verse from Galatians 5:1 that I need to remind myself of:
"It is for freedom that Christ has set us for free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery".

Expectations I have of myself are a burden and enslave me. That'll take a lifetime of right thinking, but I'll try my best to catch my thoughts when they are expectations that do not serve anyone (especially God's purposes).
