A few years ago, one of my clients was struggling to settle into his ministry role. He would spend a short time working in one place before becoming bored with that job and moving on to the next, often uncovering some sort of "issue" that would make him want to consider changing positions and locations. In reality, he was simply running from some internal struggles.

He continually wrestled with the same problems. As we worked to uncover the cause for his discontentment, we realized he was struggling with integration and the reality that there is no perfect situation or environment. He was continually dissatisfied with his inability to achieve perfection. He was also frustrated with the lack of perfection from those around him.

The reality is that we live in a fallen world, a world that's sinful and flawed. We are all flawed. I really think we know this, but sometimes it's hard for us to accept this truth, especially when it comes to our own lives. Integration has been one of the greatest opportunities for growth in my own character. In this post, I want to give you some insight on how to embrace the truth that there are both positive and negative realities in your life.
