Monday // Surrender :: Control

Title: Trust God

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; – Proverbs 3:5

How often are you at that crossroad with today’s verse, and you tell yourself, I know exactly what to do or say in a given situation? How did that work out for you? Or did you advise someone else without praying about it first? If you are like me, you prefer to be in charge, whether at work, at home, or with friends. So here is the reality check for us: surrender that feeling that we are not in control, God is! As Christian men, we must learn to approach each day/week with this in mind!

Do you follow His will and plan or yours?
