“Control”
Who is in control? I’ve learned nothing can influence me that I don’t allow. People have talked to me about the things that trigger us. I’ve also learned, and stared into the mirror, and told myself… “You trigger you.” That may be hard to hear, but there’s power in that truth. People can say things. Situations can frustrate us. Life can throw curveballs that test every ounce of our patience. But the reaction? That comes from within us. That means our peace isn’t in someone else’s hands unless we hand it to them. Growth begins when we stop giving others control over our emotions and start asking ourselves the harder question: Why did that affect me the way it did? Is it pride? Hurt? Fear? Unhealed wounds? Accountability isn’t weakness. No, it’s freedom. The moment you realize you control your response is the moment you stop being a prisoner to everyone else’s actions. I keep coming back to this statement… Protect your peace. Then master your mindset. Heal what needs healing. And remember that your greatest power has always been your ability to choose your response. We are all in control of what we allow into our world. We are all in control of our emotions. We are all in control of what we carry in us. We are exactly what we want to be in the moment we want to be it. We just need to allow it to be, and truly believe we are capable of it.
Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is from John 14:27.
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”
Have a great day ahead everyone.
