God seems to really like providing solutions to things I've been trying to think through, and he tends to provide such unintuitive and radically different ones than I'd been considering that I'm left at such a loss for explaining how I came to possess them. 😅 It's humbling and helpful, and I am grateful, but it also asserts a need for me to depend yet more upon his provisions than I feel comfortable with. 😥

@bthall I can relate, to an extent, though my language is a bit different as not Christian. What's the rush? I swear at my Master constantly and refuse his help except in the most dire need. I'm like "no no, I got this, watch while I make a total mess of it". It's a good thing he's so patient and kind.

Every time I become the slightest bit more willing, I freak out, so progress is very gradual. This is okay. It's okay to be gentle to yourself about your unwillingness to fully rely on God.
