Day 18: Not in Control


Who am I

Who are you~

Not in control!

Yup,

because

no matter how hard we try

no matter how hard we try

no matter how hard we try

We are

not in control.

We may be in control of

what we put in and put out of our mouth

and in our choices,

but we are

not in control

of what others put in and out of their mouths

and of their choices

and of

what is going to or not going to happen today.

What or who are you trying to control?

Who am I

Who are you~

Not in Control

because

as God is weaving your story together

things happen

things happen

things happen~

beyond your control.

So..

do we just sit here and do nothing

in wait

and just let things happen?

Nope~

we take control

by

Trusting

in

and

Submitting to

the One Who is in Control~

The Master Controller

and

Be still and know that God is God ~Psalm 46:10

Because

as you & as I

Put Off

our will

and Put On

His will,

for our life,

His will

will not be

Thwarted.

Such a great word

Thwarted,

from the mouth of

Job

who said it

in the midst of

the uncontrollable

that was destroying his life:

“I know that you can do all things;


no purpose of yours can be thwarted. ~Job 42:2

Thwarted~

defined in simpler terms~

“I’m convinced: You can do anything and everything. Nothing and no one can upset your plans. (The Message)


God's plans

will not & can not

be thwarted~

not in my life

not in your life

Because

God is God

and

we are not.

So

let's take back

Control

of our lives by

living in our identity of

Who am I

Who are you~

Not in Control

and

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways submit to Him,

and He will make your paths straight ~Proverbs 3:5-6

From Rags to Riches

From Uncontrollable to Control

because

that is

Who He is.
