When You Try Your Best But You Don't Succeed

If I do something to please others, I fail. If I try my hardest to appear perfect for someone else, I will always come short. If I calculate and plan a way to appear "wise", I end up looking much the opposite.

And yet, I still try. It is this "trying", I fear, that gets me into trouble. In the absence of "trying" there is "relying." Or, more simply put, if I realize that I am not capable of doing anything, it will make it easy to rely on the One who is capable.

-I'm just reminding myself of an often forgotten and neglected truth.-
