In the end, I don’t think we have as much control as we think we have or as much as we think we want. We can, however, control our reaction to things.
What is getting your goat today?
Is someone acting differently than normal and you are confused?
Is someone behaving as they normally would and you are just wishing they didn’t act like that?
Are you afraid?
Are there circumstances that you can take some personal action on but the whole situation feels so big and unmanageable?
Where can you start?
My encouragement is to start by giving the situation to God.
When I find myself in this type of situation I take a walk and talk to God.
Out loud.
I talk through it. I as Him to work on the situation. And show me what He wants me to do. And if there is some way I should be involved to bridge the gap, I ask Him to point that out to me.
I may have a role in the solution beyond my prayers. And it might not be easy. I can offer my part but that doesn’t guarantee the response from the other parties.
But, giving it to God is my first step. And trusting He is working on a resolution is my second step.
What do you need to hand over to God today?
