Are You Still Trying To Maintain Control or Are You Letting God Have Complete Control?

Are you letting God be God in your life?   So often in life we want to have control and we don’t have control, we feel as though our life is going out of control.    Instead of always wanting control, it’s time to let God have control.   It’s time to surrender all.   It’s time to give it all to God.   It’s time for us to let God lead us, guide us, and direct us.   It’s time to live a life of surrender instead of of a life of control. 

It’s not easy to surrender and to let go.   The one thing you must have in order to truly surrender is trust.   You must trust God.   You must trust Him with your whole heart.   Truly trusting God goes deeper than just saying it with your mouth.   It requires that you be steadfast and immovable.    Understand, there is always going to be someone or something that comes against what you say you believe and you have to make up in your mind that you are not going to be moved.    


Remember, God is Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.   He is Jehovah Shalom, our Peace.   He is a Waymaker when there seems to be no way to go.   He is Jehovah Jireh, our Provider.   He El Shaddai, our all sufficient God.   You have to know who He is before you can trust in what He said He will do. 


SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 
"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me
