Letting Go of What You Can’t Control

Reflect

You are not God. That might sound obvious, but it’s also a relief. You’re not responsible for holding the whole world together—just to show up with love and faithfulness in the part you’ve been given.


Pray

God,
Help me release what is not mine to carry.
Unclench my fists.
Open my hands.
Teach me to trust you with what’s beyond me.


Act

Write down three things you’re worried about. Then, one by one, lay them at God’s feet. Literally or symbolically, let them go.
