I tried to do it my way, but that didn’t work. I tried to be good and failed. I tried to follow the rules, but that didn’t last long. I tried to be what everyone expected, but fell short in their eyes and mine. I tried to do better, but couldn’t. I tried the latest thing, but it didn’t work for me. I tried again when they said I was almost there, but I never quite made it. I tried to start again, but didn’t know where to begin. I tried to find myself, but discovered I was too far gone.
What did you do? I stopped trying and surrendered to JESUS and He made all things new! Now “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (Phil 4:13 KJV) because “if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Cor 5:17 KJV). So, stop trying and surrender to JESUS! You won’t regret it!
