Whenever we're fearful, we end up being controlling, so today, we’re learning how to overcome a spirit of control!

When we’re working with false or missing information and we end up leaving God out of the equation, we have to sort things our between ourselves. We have to get what we want and need from others, and without God, all that’s left is control: we must control others, through different “methods” to achieve our goals.

But Jesus teaches us how to overcome this spirit of control, which always ends up in the mix of emotional unhealth. The more we feel a lack of feeling loved, the more controlling we become, in hopes of getting closer to love, only the opposite happens. And, of course, what we must do is turn to God, acknowledge He is in control of our lives, and learn and practice to dependent upon Him to have our needs for love met.
