I am worn out from my groaning. All night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears. My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.
(Psalms 6:6-7)
Our pride cries out against the ideas of powerlessness and giving up control. The more powerless we feel, the more we strive to take control; the more we try to take control the more we come to realize we have no control. This turns into a maddening self-sustaining cycle of self-destruction. There comes a time when we need to turn to the only one who can defeat those things which try to cause us pain.
Name an area of your life you strive to maintain control over?
What do you think would happen if you turned this over to God?
What holds you back from giving this over to God?
Ask God to show you different areas of your life that you still need to release to Him.
