CONTROL is a BIG WORD!!! After many many years of not identifying that I AM IN CONTROL OF HOW I CONTROL MY EMOTIONS AND ACTIONS IN EVERY SITUATION I FINALLY DO NOW!!!! Let Go and let God!!! Navigate life with the compass that gives directions to stay in control of what you can and allow yourself to Pray and everything else will work itself out one way or the other. Everything doesn’t always go the way we plan it and this is when we have to stand still and say God is control and let him take the wheel. Turn it over its ok !!!!! He always works it out for our good ❤️
Hey Queens!
Control?! That’s a big one and sometimes frightening for me because keeping control means I’m in charge of my next and my feelings won’t get interrupted, but sometimes I do know I need to give it up because not all “control” is here to hurt or destroy you it’s here to help build you and also to keep you from harm and another ooops or uh oh I messed up again.
Not sure when was the last time I fought giving it up but I know my life is not really my own..God first Family 2nd business third and it all plays apart of the control mechanism.
So prayer asking God to help me let go so I can grow!
Good topic! 💓🙏🏾
I occasionally feel that I must be in control of many things. Over the years, I have learned that nothing is really in my control. However, God is in control of everything.
The Bible tells us to “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.(Prov. 3:5&6)
While believing this Bible verse with all my heart, I make sure I stay busy and only be concerned with what is in my control.
Often, I must back away, pray and leave it in God’s hands.
Sometimes I’m so good at leaving it in God’s hands that people think I don’t care and that nothing bothers me. My husband calls me a duck because I let somethings “roll off my back”.
I’ve just learned to leave it in God’s hands.
I take a deep breath and say at this moment how am I benefiting the quality of my life by whatever it is I’m about to do, and if it’s going to bring me joy, am I doing it because I’m stressed or is there a real need. Then I can be confident and happy with my decisions.
This is an interesting question. In some areas of my life I feel out of control (not in a good way) and that I need to be more disciplined. In other areas I try to be in control to manage my expectations and perhaps to protect myself from disappointment.
For years I had issues with control, I just stay prayerful and things that I cannot control, I let it go!!! Today is my Birthday and from here on out, IM IN CONTROL OF MY LIFE AND MY DESTINY 👊🏾
For a long time I haven’t been in control, living with my daughter and her family, but by the grace of God, I will be moving soon and I will be in control of me. I dealt with it by keeping my thoughts to myself and knowing that one day i will get out. I am kinda of scared of living alone, especially having health issues, but I have faith that God will see me through. I can identify with the mountain of boxes ( mostly SJ boxes of course 😄) but every thing will be OK. Then you will get tired of seeing my posts in my Sassy things.
Hello my beautiful sisters. You know what. I’m not afraid to give up control, however, there was a time when I felt like it was REQUIRED that I always maintain a level of complete and ultimate control. I felt it was REQUIRED that I appear as though I had everything figured out and it was REQUIRED that I be strong no matter what. The day I learned it was okay for me to loose control without loosing my perspective and be vulnerable as long as I was not reckless it was okay for me to be a little whimsical. It was okay to throw caution to the wind. In order for me to continue on the path of progression I had to realize that if I was perfect and falsely portrayed someone who never dropped the ball, never missed a beat, or never forgot to remember to remember to put this over here because this goes over here, I erase the need for God. You see if I am perfect then God’s work in me is finished. However if I realize in my clay element I can get a bit disoriented because I NEED THE POTTER TO REARRANGE SOME THINGS AND REORGANIZE SOME THINGS THUS CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVING ME KEEPING ME TOGETHER AND MAKING ME BETTER. I loose control willingly and uninhibited because from time to time I need to be reminded and my toe needs to be dipped. Praise God for the Arrangement The Rearrangement The Unorganization and The Reorganization.
In the last year, or so, I’ve been forced to deal with being out of control. With so many aspects of my life out of control, I had to take a cartoon princess’s advice…Let It Go. I’ve started to pray and talk to God more. I realize there’s no need to get all in a tizzy over things that I can’t do anything about. I trust God knows what’s best for me and won’t let his child suffer, so I rest in that. As you’ve said, it will be what’s its gonna be!
Are you afraid to give up control? I am still yes somewhat afraid to give up control. I believe when my kids were growing up it was worse because I did not include them in doing chores. I felt like if it was going to be done right, I has ti do it myself. My family says I have OCD…..really bad. So having cancer and eye surgery really were times when I felt like I had to relinquish alot of the things that I would do day in and day out. These were teachable moments about how important it is take care of self and accept help.
