Monday // Surrender :: Control

Title: Held fast.

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

Often, we are reluctant to ask for help; instead, we try to do things on our own. We want that control. But we are powerless when we are without the Lord. Leaning on God during difficult times highlights our faith in Him and His love for us. As the verse tells us, we need Him to hold us fast and to give us the wisdom to respond wisely to every situation.

Today, offer this prayer—Dear Lord, whatever comes today and whatever goes, hold me fast and remind me I am precious in Your sight.

Real men, let God take control.
