I have cried with every boss I’ve ever had.every.single.one. Why would I cry?Because theyВ told me that something I had done was not perfect.They had given me criticism about my work and I couldn’t handle it.
I can quote every word of criticism my husband has said to me.
Why?Because he is a kind, sensitive, loving man who in 12 yrs of marriage has hardly ever criticized me.He is more likely to encourage me and turn a blind eye to my failures.But there have been a few instances where I needed a word of correction and yet I was still terribly upset by it.
I have gotten angry with my son when he said I was using harsh words.
Why?Because there is a mom I want to beВ and a mom I don’t want to be.The last thing I want is for my children to be aware that I have failed.В
Being devastated or angered by criticism.Who am I?
A sinner.Imperfect.В Never good enough on my own strength.
and also
Forgiven.Perfect through Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.Dependent on Him.
Particularly with my spouse and children,В IВ should be open to their correction knowing that they loveВ me more than anyone else on this earth!Recognizing thatВ we are on the same team is a HUGE step to accepting their correction on areas I may need to change and grow.
