Grip
We spend so much energy white-knuckling our way through life, convinced that if we just hold on tight enough, we can control the outcome. But what if that control is just an illusion?
Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us to "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."
The truth? Our peace doesn't come from controlling life, but from trusting the One who does. God is still on the throne. His love for you hasn't changed. He knows what's best, even when we can't see it.
Today, take inventory. Where are you gripping too tightly? Your kids? Your career? Your relationships? What if you surrendered those areas in prayer and trusted His guidance and timing?
Stop straining. Start praying. Let God do a new thing in you, and make your paths straight.
