Consequences and Grace

I set out this semester and decided to take five classes so that I would not be bored and so I would continue in the growth/learning process of ceasing to be a perfectionist. I am disliking the fact that I am learning these things.
Last week was a crazy week for me in terms of school with three significant grades coming out of that week. As I am getting these grades I am struggling to accept the consequences of taking five classes and not being able to put full, perfect effort into each of them while still remembering God's great grace.
I saw the grade  I received for the paper I wrote last week and took a deep breath. I knew I could have done better had I had more time. I felt bad that I had subjected my teacher to the shoddy work. I thought about the impact it would have on my overall grade and realized there was not much I could do about it.
In my mind I want to go back in time and fix the paper, fix the grade, and prove myself a better student. Yet God still loves me. It is not subjective, it is the truth. Regardless of my performance on this paper, God's love and delight in me has not ceased.
That is where I must sit, where I must stay. And in that the growth comes of learning God's delight in the midst of my imperfections.
