Day 16: The Uncontrollable Controllable


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 & put out of our mouth

& in our choices,

but we are

Not in Control

of what others put in & out of their mouths

& their choices

& 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.

Therefore,

do we just sit here & do nothing

in wait & just let things happen?

Nope~

we take

Control

by

Trusting In

&

Submitting to

the One Who is in Control,

The Master Controller~

&

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

in all your ways submit to Him,

&

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

Because

as you & as I

Put Off

our will

& 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." (Job 42:2, The Message)

God's plans

will not & can not be

Thwarted~

not in my life & not in your life,

Because

God is God

& we are not.

Therefore,

let's shed more weight &

Fast

from trying to

Control

what we are

Not in Control of

and instead

"Be still and know

that

God is God."

Psalm 46:10
