It’s time to release your control, my fellow control freak.

God Is Within Her - a women’s devotional podcast - A podcast by Valarie Reynolds

Are you a control freak like me? You want things your way. You have a hard time allowing others to help you because you’re afraid they will “do it wrong.” Do you have a habit of hustle and grind, getting overworked and ending up exhausted because “if it’s meant to be, it’s up to me!” You get that anxious feeling when you have to delegate trust and duties? You are a planner and if the next week isn’t planned out to perfection with all of your answers answered, you live the next 7 days in worry and stress? You hate not knowing how things will turn out. You lose sleep because of to-do lists. I could keep going and going because this is literally my life. Sometimes, my inner control freak gets so out of hand, it can gets in the way of my faith and belief in God. My “if it’s meant to be, it’s up to me” attitude can cause me to grind and hustle, leaving me to forget God plays a huge part in my success. I do what I think is best to try to get the results I want...and sometimes what I want is not always what God wants for me. So today, we study the story of Abraham and Sarah. Sarah, was a control freak like us. Her and her husband has a huge blessing promised from God, but Sarah really struggled with believing it would ever come true. So she took matters into her own hands, and it did not turn out like she wanted. Her promise starts off in Chapter 15. It is finally fulfilled in Chapter 21. It's time to stop worrying and stressing about how fast or slow your timeline is. Stop being anxious over your chapter 21 that isn’t even here yet. That’s not your job. You just think you’re in control. Funny thing is, God has the control. So give your control back to God. See how that looks on you for a while. I have a feeling, you’ll going to like it. _______________________________________________________Have you been wanting to grow a closer relationship with God but just don’t know where to start?
