Proverbs 24:16
"for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again..."
"Perfectionism is the false idea that a righteous man never falls- or when he does, he certainly doesn't admit it, lest he discourage everyone who is watching him run! When we sin and fall short of God's glorious holiness, we have no right to despair or hide, but only to confess, ask forgiveness, and get up again with God's help.
I think as wives and mothers we have a tendency to fall into the trap of perfectionism rather easily...."
