I use to have an issue with control, but as the saying goes you live and you learn. Wisdom and experience has taught me to relinquish some of that control. Not only is it liberating, but very productive (with the right team).
God gives us people to assist us so that we don’t have to carry everything on our on. But so often, we allow our insecurities to prevent them from helping us.
I ‘m in my 70’s wisdom and Grace has helped with some of my control issues. But recently I have issues with my back, hips and knees. So, sometimes I see things that need to be done and I Can’t move. I’m am an introvert, so being alone is natural. I recently had a doctors appointment and cried about my future. When I was able to get my alone time, I began to think about what I have. In this season of change, I have declared GOD’s best. The vein me didn’t want a walker!! I’m expecting the walker any day. Tens machine on the way. A wheel chair will be at the dock for me to board the ship for my cruise. Now, when I’m in pain; I thank GOD for the ability to feel. As a Pastor, I needed a dose of what I give out. I’m back in control, how? I appreciate what I do have.
Control for me is a word that has negative connotations in my world. It edges on the seats of perfection, domination, and narcissistic behaviors. These examples do not apply to Charis, but I know ppl who have these negative behaviors. The good thing about these behaviors is that they can be changed over time. With journaling, therapy, prayer, affirmations, and just reflecting on the situations that make these behaviors arise. I believe, most behaviors are learned, so they can be unlearned. Personally, I don’t have control issues. I plan activities to fit my day accordingly. My attitude is gratitude because I love ppl and life in general. My personality is bold; but I oftentimes, suppress it because anxiety can take over. My composure of reservedness helps me to stay calm. Long walks in nature with oneness brings the clarity needed to tackle hard jobs or a momentous task. Plan how you will execute each task with a checklist. Color code each category as it’s completed. After each task is completed reward yourself. These rewards do not have to be tangible. I say, when that control attack rears its head, SHOUT OUT! “Not today, begone!” RELAX….RELATE….REJUVENATE.,, ☺️💫✨

I understand exactly how you feel. Being a Wife, Mother, Businesswoman, friend, and all the other titles and responsibilities that we have can be overwhelming. I am learning God is in control. When it comes to my personal life, family, and my businesses, I want complete control. However, I am starting to realize I can’t be everything to everyone and have nothing for myself. If I am not my best, how am I going to be my best to my family and all the other responsibilities that I have? I have to Take CARE of ME FIRST, and that requires giving up some control.
