"For as many as are led by the Spirit
of God, these are sons of God."
Romans 8:14
A well-worn truism says, “You can’t control what you
can’t control!” As obvious as this platitude is, it is still
ignored by people based on the amount of worrying we
do. Most of what we worry about is beyond our control.
What we can control is actually very limited in scope
compared to what we can’t control.
Our biggest temptation in life is control, or at the very
least, change, other people. We allow the words and
actions of others to cause us undue stress when, in
fact, what others do and say is not really under our
control. The BEST way to handle who and what we
can’t control is to live a life under the control of the
Holy Spirit.
When we're led by Spirit of God, we're led by One
who loves us and provides for us in every situation.
And, one who allows us to manifest love and other
virtues in every situation (Galatians 5:22-23).
Don’t spend a day worrying about what you
can’t control. Instead, yield to control of the
Holy Spirit. Let Him guide you and equip
you for every circumstance.
"Man is most free when
controlled by God alone."
Augustine
