Control. We humans love to function with a sense of control. I mean, just ask my husband: I even try to drive while I’m in the passenger seat.
We often muscle our way through situations, believing that somehow if we just work a little harder, clean up a little more, pull ourselves together a bit, then everything will fall into place. Then everything will fit into my plan.
This passage of scripture reminds us that it all belongs to Him. Every. Single. Bit. Of. It. Yes, even the plans for our lives. It’s all His. Not so that He can dangle it over you like a carrot in front of a horse, no. Sister, He wants to bless you. His blessings come in all forms, yet so often we seek after and ask for the blessings that the world approves of: wealth, family, status, job… and the list goes on.
Today, make a list of the many blessing that God has given you. And if you’re struggling with that list, ask Him to reveal His blessings to you.
