Seeking control

Growing old is a wonderful thing, at least for me. But there are things that unnerves me. And so I try to control the circumstances as much as I can.

I am not always successful. Some things are elusive.

The more we seek [control], the more it increases our anxiety rather than calms it.

~ Patrick Ryan

But I know God is in control of everything and at all times. My fear is unnecessary. But it is not easy to let go of my fears. I am still learning Proverbs 3.5. Hopefully I will get there.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.
