As a busy mommy and housewife, I struggle with control. I want everything to run like a well-oiled machine. This desire that I have to be in control comes with a high price…rather than take joy in my God-given work and responsibilities, I become enslaved to them.
Striving for perfection almost comes across as an admirable quality. But it is not an admirable quality; it is a sinful desire to control everything, quickly leading to fear when that control is threatened.
Anyone else been in this boat before?
Here is a wonderful short article written by Christina Fox. She encourages mommies and housewives to let go of our grip on everything and to trust the Lord. I hope this article is as impactful for you as it was for me…I felt like I breathed a little easier after reading this!
