“Be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
— Matthew 5:48 NASB1995
🌟 Wholehearted, Not Halfway
Jesus isn’t calling you to flawlessness—He’s calling you to wholeness. To grow into someone who doesn’t just act right but loves right. Someone whose heart is shaped by the Father.
This is spiritual maturity: when your words, thoughts, and actions are all pulling in the same direction—toward God.
🖊 Real Talk:
- Are you chasing perfectionism or pursuing Christlikeness?
- What’s one area where God is calling you to grow deeper?
✨ Try This:
Ask God to reveal where you’re living halfhearted. Then take one step this week toward being whole in that area.
✍️ Prayer:
Father, I don’t want to fake maturity. Make me whole. Teach me to love fully, forgive freely, and live like You. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
