Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Insanity is continually repeating patterns of thought and behavior knowing they are destructive. They are destroying us and those around us. It is self-defeating behavior, doing wrong things even when we know they are wrong and not doing right things when we know we should.
Why do we keep doing the same old things and end up back in the same old place? Is it a lack of faith in the ability of God to rescue us? It raises the question:
Do I really believe anyone or anything can help me change?
Our insanity can make us feel hopeless. It can take us to despair and depression. We wonder if we can ever change, and some they say they can’t. If you don’t believe you can change, then likely you have an inadequate god and/or you have not surrendered–admitted weakness and powerlessness.
There is hope! The True God–revealed to us in Jesus–is able to change you. He can make you sane and provide you peace, joy, and confidence. He can help you all along the way. He really can.
