37 | Stop Trying to Be Perfect: 3 People...

LaToya Edwards | Life Coach for Highly Sensitive and Introverted Women
About this episode

In this episode, I dive into a truth that many of us struggle with - feeling unworthy of God's love due to our mistakes and imperfections. 

Through the stories of three biblical figures - Moses, Peter, and the Samaritan woman at the well - I share how God's love isn't conditional on our perfection. Each of these individuals had significant flaws and made major mistakes, yet God still chose, loved, and used them powerfully. 

If you're feeling too broken or messed up to be close to God, this episode will remind you that He loves you exactly as you are. I share personal insights and encourage you to embrace God's unconditional love, letting go of the pressure to be perfect.
