. surrender

the very vastness of the work raises one's thoughts to God, as the only one by whom it can be done.
~Florence Nightingale

there are times when even your best efforts fail. sometimes the most powerful way to deal with a challenge is to stop trying to control events, other people, and even God. quit fighting what's happening. let go of your tight grip, and open your hand. once you admit that you are at the end of your own resources, you make room for God to step in and work a miracle. when you can't control a situation or figure out the answer, surrender to God and trust his greater strength and wisdom. allow God to lead you step by step through this challenge.

. write down a problem that persists despite your best efforts to resolve it. deal with the problem by surrendering it to God and revisit the problem in a month.

have a beautiful day,
