I was told that the definition of insanity was doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting a different result. Now Websters Dictionary may disagree, but think about it. How many times in your life have you tried doing something taking the same approach over and over again but still expecting a different outcome?? Doesn't that sound a little insane?
The bible says:
PSALM 119:28-32 (NIV)
Keep me from deceitful ways; be gracious to me through your laws.
I have chosen the way of truth; I have set my heart on your laws.
I hold fast to your statues, O Lord;
do not let me be put to shame
I run in the path of your commands for you have set my heart free.
Instead of trying to handle things your way, hand them over to God. Follow his laws and he will set your heart and mind free.
God can strengthen us so that we can make progress even during times of trouble. When you trust in his word then trials and tribulations do not cause us to lose stability.
Break free from the bondage of "insanity" and when you see yourself repeating the same mistakes over and over, just ask God if you can have a "Do Over!"
