Every Christian has a sin nature, so almost every Christian has a sense that they are not whole, they are not “okay.” Paul clearly expressed this in Romans 7:15-20 when he said that he did not do what he wanted to do, but he did things he did not want to do. The feelings of inadequacy, confusion, guilt, and shame can be so strong in some Christians that they give up on trying to do anything for God. But a huge key in being effective as a Christian is to realize that you can do wonderful things for God even if you are a broken person.
