Confessions of a Recovering Striver
Whit's Adventures and Blog
Welcome, friend! I'm Whitney Roehl, I'm a recovering Striver. What is a striver?
For me, it was constantly aiming for perfection, relying on my own ambition, strength, and ability. As a Christian, I'd ask God for help but He was my last resort, not my first. Nothing was ever "good enough". I constantly needed to do more, to have more.
I felt empty and exhausted.
When, I finally got to the end of myself, Jesus crashed in with His personable love.
Since then, I've repented of being self-sufficient, constantly striving. Now, I live surrendered. Join me, on this journey.
