Maybe you’re a flexible person. I’m not. I have gotten much better at rolling with it. But it has been a process. Relinquishing control is hard for some of us. Trusting is hard for some of us. I began learning of the destructiveness of control in my teen years. After all, if you want something done right, do it yourself, right? Wrong. My attempts at controlling life led to a life out of control.
I know we’re supposed to cooperate with God, work alongside Him, following His lead. But sometimes I’m tempted to take the reins and control things. When fear takes over, trust evaporates.
