OUT OF CONTROL

I do not control.

Outside my own actions and my own thoughts I do not control anything.

As I am addicted in any way to patterns of thought that are not good I am not in control of my thoughts or actions. Therefore, any habit, drug or substance that impairs my ability to use my brain to think, or my heart to serve others, or my spirit to avoid my God, I am out of control. My life is unmanageable.

I feel out of control when I am interested in changing anyone, for any reason. There are many things that bring me pain, sorrow, and grieving, because I care for others— I cannot change these things myself, but hope in the God who has the ability to cleans their heart as He has mine.

He cannot change me or others unless we turn to our will to His and have faith in Him. I desire much for myself and my family that he has ordained. These things, I am sure are worthy of my concern. Caring about things that are of little matter after this life, I find are usually the suspects that cause me grief and pull down my resolve. I give my will over to my higher power, my God, my Father in Heaven and trust in the power of my Savior Jesus Christ to heal me. I listen for the Spirit which confirms truth for inspiration of what will be the will of God for me and direct my energies there.
May it be so, Amen.
