What things have I seen or experienced recently that I think could have been, or must have been God?
Head to heart knowledge. Through experience. Giving God the credit
Why do I desire so much to have control? A perfect example is in my relationship with MCM. When she doesn’t 100% clarify what is going on, I get frustrated and discouraged. I cannot possibly be 100% aware of things all the time. I need to step back, breathe, and let go. LORD, help me to let go. Reassure me that I can let go and I will be OK. You will take care of me. Help me to trust you. Help me to give you credit where credit is due. Help me to realize how much I need you.
