Imperfect but Faithful

I suddenly remember Big Mike or Michael as he preferred to be called of the movie, The Blind Side. He may not have had good SAT scores at first but from the results of that test they found that his protective instincts was his best asset.

I have never felt so strong about fighting and standing up for my mom until the recent events happened. When I saw my mom with her guards almost down and her eyes glossy from the tears that started to fill her eyes up, I suddenly felt a stab of pain in my heart. I wanted to cry too but I knew that I needed to be strong for her. The first thing that came to my mind was "I have to protect my mom" If not from those who try to hurt her, but at least from the pain that those people my bring upon her.

So I guess, there is a Big Mike in me..

Though we don't always agree on things and though we don't have the best mother-daughter relationship, I appreciate my mom more than anything in this world. She never gave up on us, her family, even when it meant she had to lose herself. She always tried to keep us together even when it felt more painful. She got me through high school and college having provided all my basic needs. She never stopped working for us. She never stopped trying. She never stopped loving.

I nor my mom may never be perfect in our faith and in our walk with God but we always make it a point that we remain faithful. We may not be the best examples of who Christians should be but we are always aware of how Christians should act. We may not always be right in our ways but we are always repentant and are willing to be corrected.

I will never allow anyone to hurt my mom with actions or with words. I will not tolerate judgement from anyone because they aren't with her everyday. I will not be silent when anyone calls her names. But know that I will not be a hypocrite and call them the same names. Rather, I will pray for them and speak blessings towards them. I am not against the antagonist but I am for the protagonist.

And even though I haven't been the best daughter, in this trial I will try to be at my best for my mom.

And in our imperfections are we made faithful.
