Sadie Robertson Huff Celebrates Vulnerability: I Am ‘Dependent On God To Carry Me’
By Movieguide® Contributor
Sadie Robertson Huff took to Instagram to open up about vulnerability.
“I am a leader,” Huff captioned her post. “People know my face. People expect something from me. I have to have it all together, because people are counting on me.”
However, when a friend asked her how she was really doing, Huff decided to embrace her vulnerability.
“God sent a friend, to simply say, ‘how is your heart today – I see you have a lot going on and I’m sure you are feeling the pressure,’” she explained. “Any other day I might have just said, ‘oh no I’m good! I’m just grateful.’ But today, although those things are true, there was a lot of stress. And so I decided to actually share that.”
“Her response made me tear up and she included this quote I wanted to share, “never trust a leader without a limp” and she went on to speak to the strength that a limp shows,” Huff continued.
Huff went on to talk about how social media has conditioned us to think we need to show only our best selves at all times, and how we need to rid ourselves of that idea.
“True strength comes when you show up with a limp,” she wrote. “When you show up honest, vulnerable, willing, and dependent on the one greater inside to come through. I want to be a leader with a limp. Dependent on God to carry me.”
“Friend, if you’re weak you are the perfect candidate for God to be strong in you,” she concluded.
Huff often uses her Instagram account to address her followers and share her own personal moments with them. Movieguide® previously reported on Huff’s thoughts on a healthy body:
Sadie Robertson Huff is encouraging fans to embrace the hard work that comes from trying to make lifestyle changes.
“I want to share this bc I want to show that some things take time and hard work,” Huff captioned a mirror selfie of herself in workout clothes. “Actually, most things do if you want to see significant impact!”
Huff then opened up about her physical routine since welcoming daughter Honey James last year. Often, mothers face a pressure to “bounce back” after they have their children and return to their pre-baby bodies.
“We have a culture where we get to see the outcome of things, but rarely the process,” Huff wrote. “It can make it seem like everything is just supposed to happen to you when you look around at peoples Insta pages. And if it doesn’t come naturally to you, it can make you feel like something is wrong with you.
“Let me affirm you friend, there is nothing wrong with you!!! The truth is that there is a story behind every post, and a different angel behind every one that is shown.”
