...Jesus still loves me and helps me try harder.
When I put other things before Him...
...Jesus still gives me his undivided attention.
When I am impatient...
...Jesus waits patiently.
When I am judgmental...
...Jesus reminds me that He alone is Judge.
When I care too much about my appearance...
...Jesus looks inside at my heart.
When I can't...
...Jesus can.
When...
...Jesus.
No matter what, I fall back on Jesus. Does this mean that I give up and submit to my undisciplined self? No. It means I get up and try again knowing that if (when) I fall again I have a Lord who is gracious enough to over compensate for my shortcomings. And that sure gives me a whole lot of hope.
