Control often masquerades as strength. We believe that if we can manage every detail, anticipate every outcome, and protect ourselves from every risk, we’ll be safe. But control is a heavy burden—and it rarely delivers the peace it promises. Instead, it leaves us exhausted, anxious, and disconnected from the very people we’re trying to protect.
In Be Transformed: New Life Awaits, we learn that love is not self-seeking. It doesn’t insist on its own way. God’s love invites us to release control and trust Him fully. That surrender is not weakness—it’s freedom. It’s the moment we stop trying to be our own savior and start living as someone who is already saved.
The podcast Freedom from Being Controlled shares the story of a young person whose dependency on a relationship left them feeling empty and tormented. Even the joy of Christmas couldn’t fill the void. Their heart was tethered to someone else’s approval, and the fear of rejection kept them trapped. But when they began to receive God’s love, everything changed. They found peace—not because they regained control, but because they let go of it.
God’s love gives us the courage to release our grip. It reminds us that we are held by Someone who is trustworthy. When we stop trying to control outcomes, we start experiencing peace. And in that peace, we find the strength to live, love, and lead with grace.
Letting go doesn’t mean giving up—it means giving over. It means trusting that God’s love is enough to carry us, guide us, and protect us. It means choosing relationship over control, connection over fear, and freedom over torment.
🎧 Listen to the podcast Freedom from Being Controlled to learn how God’s love can break the cycle of control and bring lasting peace.
