Last night was crazy (but a good crazy). Lately I've been battling the need to control situations around me. I mean I just feel sometimes that if I can tell a person what to do that he/she will be better off you know? I hate typing this but let me be honest real quick: I sometimes feel that I am "smarter" than some people and that I know it all. WOOOOO back up uhh, I was/am SO SO SO wrong!! Little did I know how much I was making the situation worse =/. Duh me right lol.
Let me make it clear, it's ok to sometimes help people out, give them a push and good advise, but it is not ok to push them over the edge on top of a 30ft building is it? They don't want to die so they turn around and fight or beg you not to push them. That's were I am at right now, I need to learn not to push people over the edge and allow God to work with them. My intentions are good but that doesn't mean their right.
Letting go of the need to control situations around me is actually REALLY healthy. By letting go and letting God, I am freeing up more space for God to work in my life and freeing space for me to concentrate on more important things. It's a new aspect of freedom and a deeper level of trust we put in God and it feels good. Just think of situations right now that you need/try to control, even if their small situations but especially if they are big ones and LET GO!! I need not say more but to say this: LET GO AND LET GOD! In every situation.
***If you slip up and catch yourself being controlling again, dust yourself off pick yourself up repent and move forward***
Love lots and read more, have a great day!!!!
