Without control (15/100)

Traveling to spend time with family when engaged in this kind of journey has been as hard as I anticipated, particularly today.

Why is it easier to release control to God but not to other people? Or is this self-deception?

If I can't trust God to work through others to influence my world, then am I truly able to trust Him in anything?

Trusting
the unknown,
the mystery,
the hard places,
the good.

As Brennan Manning has presented before, this is a quality of ruthless trust. O, Lord, give me the grace necessary to live into this kind of grace on this journey and in life in general.
