Do you ever have a hard time releasing the details of your life to God? What is it about us as people that drives us to control our lives? I often find myself trying to control the details of my life. We want promotions, and so we control. We want good reputations, and so we control. We want respect, and so we control. We want (fill in the blank), and so we control. My list goes on and on. How beautiful it would be for us all to simply enjoy what God has prepared for us, and trust that His heart is good. God recently spoke the following statement to me and it brought a great deal of freedom to my life.
"You get the joy of discovering your destiny, not controlling it."
God has already prepared my destiny. He has planned the details of my life. I can trust that His plan is good. Even great! Let's be committed to walking with Him and simply enjoying His wonderful plan.
