"God is fully aware that you and I are not perfect.
Let me add: God is also fully aware that the people you think are perfect are not.
And yet we spend so much time and energy comparing ourselves to others' usually comparing our weaknesses to their strengths. This drives us to create expectations for ourselves that are impossible to meet. As a result, we never celebrate our good efforts because they seem to be less than what someone else does.
... be thankful for all the small successes in your home, your family relationships, your education and livelihood, your Church participation and personal improvement.
... never forget that you are truly precious daughters in God's kingdom"
-Dieter F. Uchtdorf
