ARE YOU IN CONTROL?



I created a worksheet while trying to figure out how we can maintain our strength or regain our personal power. 


For a summary of my conclusions, see below.

✅ Control what you can control - clear your mind

I decided to write some stuff down instead of having a whole lot of thoughts swirling around my head.

I wanted to get them out of the back of my mind onto paper where I could see them more accurately; not hiding in shadowy fear, confusion and worry. 

We need to distinguish the things we can do something about, verses what we should simply release to God (1 Peter 5:7) - because we can’t control it anyway.

 ✅ Make changes by taking action on "control-able" things

Identifying what is "control-able" helps to clarify where I should put my efforts and made me feel more centered and in control of some circumstances. As a result, I  created the worksheet that I want to share with you - bit.ly/controlworksheet You can download it by just clicking the link or type it into the internet browser.

It has four sections to help you organize your concerns and choose actions to make changes. 

I talked about it in a video above. I explain the simple worksheet which is my gift to you. 
I also discuss what you CAN do. If you are anything like me, you want to DO something! 😊 You can release!

✅ RELEASE the rest to God

If you, like so many others, feel somewhat drained by personal situations or the prolonged season that we have  experienced, download the control worksheet for Tip1 "Control What You Can control" (no email required). 

We are encouraged to trust God for those nagging uncontrollables that drain, distract or cause anxiety. 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

When you release control, it will clear the path forward. Don't you want the freedom and energy to move toward the good things in your future? Let go of what you can't control❗💚
