I Stopped Trying

I stopped trying to have a relationship with God,
because I do.

I stopped trying to go deeper into relationship with God,
because it is nonsense to try to go deeper into what is boundless.

I stopped trying to love God more,
because I love God
(actually God is the source of this love)
as much as I possibly can at this moment
and even if I come to love God more tomorrow,
who is keeping track?
Surely not God.

I stopped trying to be good enough,
because I am.

I stopped trying to accept myself,
because now I do.

I stopped trying to be free,
because now I a soaring.

Praise you Jesus, now and forever!
