Day 121 of 365

Releasing Control to God

Psalm 37:5

Psalm 37:5

“Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this.”

Insight

Commit means to roll your burden onto someone else. You can't carry everything - the weight will crush you. God invites you to roll your burdens onto Him. Commit your way - your plans, relationships, finances, future - to the Lord. Then trust Him to work. Releasing control isn't irresponsibility; it's faith. It's acknowledging that God is better equipped to handle your life than you are. Let go. Trust Him.

Reflection

What are you trying to control that you need to commit to God? What's keeping you from releasing control - fear, pride, or lack of trust?
