17th Birthday

Yesterday was my 17th birthday. It’s been a journey.

I feel farther from the LORD today than ever.

I feel I cannot get it right at all with my “religious” disciplines.

I feel the LORD wants me to chagne, but my attempts just keep falling short.

It is leaving me very discouraged.

God, I just say yes. But, from there, I seem hopeless. Please pick up the slack.
