Trying & Trust

The will is a complex and mysterious part of our being.  For some it is swayed like the willow tree by the wind of desire.  Others are firmly planted in roots of discipline.  I am of the latter group, and with deep roots at that.  But as strong as my will is, right now I'm struggling to care about... anything, really.  So I don't have much in me trying...

And so I'm learning to trust.  With my motivation gone I'm learning to ask in faith to walk by His side because I can't wield my own will to submit.  My Father must be the one to gently bring about what my lack of care cannot.

His grace is not opposed to my effort, but is sufficient when I am weak.

Trying trust,
Lane
