It all depends... on God's mercy

"It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy." Rom. 9:16 (You can read Romans 9 in full here. ) 

Abba God,
Wow. I am so quick to forget... You have shown me so much mercy in saving me. I didn't do anything to deserve this gift. So it is with anything good in my life... Forgive me for repeatedly striving to be "perfect" on my own, for focusing on myself all the while. Teach me to simply trust You to: change me, work out details, walk with me through the hard times, etc. Thanking You seems insufficient. After all of these years, I still don't fully grasp how this sanctification works, but I guess I don't have to. I just need to get back in the yoke with Jesus, and learn today's lessons without worry. Surely that's hard enough for one day's work! I'd do well to let the rest go... Thanks for always teaching me and never letting me go. I do believe, help me where my belief is weak! In Jesus' name...
