Control…

Now I’m all grown up… Control… as some of the lyrics to Janet Jackson’s song course through my brain… I am realizing how much control I do not have.

I do not have control of how my Professor chooses to grade and critique my assignments
I do not have control over how long it is taking the online tutoring center  to review final term paper 
I cannot control that it will take possibly until 10 pm Saturday night to have the paper in review form

I can however do this..
I can control my reaction to my frustration levels as it is building more inside of me.
I can release my need for control to God and let Him do all things in His timing and not mine
I know that God is my guidance and for the others who are on my team
I know that I cannot fight but go instead in peace knowing I have done the best I can for now
I can pray for patience, for my anxiousness to subside

I belong to He who made me!

Ephesians 2:19-22(ESV) 

19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. 22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

So today…my chronic illness is kicking me in the butt…because yesterday…yesterday I did things. Feeling a cold coming on…and am so tired I just want to crawl back in bed. But there are 2 responses each for discussion boards in #Bibl323 and #Bibl450 and a lot of reading to comprehend…and there is life in general to try and function in…so I am praying that this is the worst day…that tomorrow is better {because I get to be part of praise and worship this weekend along with some amazing folks}…yet again. To my fellow #spoonies I am with you as you struggle through your day…God bless.
