Day 9: Surrendering Control
Focus Scripture:
“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” – Proverbs 16:3
Have you surrendered your desire for control enough to trust God with your plans?
It's easy to want to manage every detail and ensure everything unfolds as we hope. Yet, true peace comes not from controlling—or obsessing over—outcomes, but from releasing them into God’s hands. When we let go and commit our plans to the Lord, we trust that He will establish our steps. We may not always understand how things will unfold, but we can be confident that His wisdom and timing are perfect.
Surrendering our control isn’t a sign of weakness; it's an act of faith, knowing that when we trust Him, He will guide us into the future He has prepared.
Let go of the need to control every outcome, and watch as He directs your path in ways far beyond what you could have imagined
Reflection Prompt:
- What areas of your life are you still holding on to control?
- How can you release them to God today?
Call to Action:
Take a moment to commit a specific area of your life to the Lord in prayer. Ask Him to take control and align it with His perfect order.
