I want my dream life. I want it so bad

I want a house, four bedroom bungalow with a small lawn in front of it. I want to wake up on a Saturday morning to the sun shining on the blades of the mowed grasses and sip my cup of coffee as my children play catch in front of me.

I want a car, maybe two. I want a 4×4 truck, with dark paint and maybe an SUV to go with it. I want to be able to enjoy my good music with a good sound system while I ride into town. Yes. These are the things I want. I want them, not just for myself. I want to get them, so that I can say that "God gave me these things". After all, every thing I do is for his glory.

So I wake up every morning and get into the " hustle". I have no time to waste, no energy to spare, I need to succeed because Christians must be on top. I cannot let God down. I must hammer. For the glory of God, of course.

Does this sound familiar? Is this you? Do you feel the pressure of your own dreams tear at your soul every morning? Are you afraid that you'd let down your friends and family who expect so much from you? Are you afraid you'd let God down?

Well firstly, God doesn't need you to give Him glory. He is God. It's not your billions or degrees that would prove that He is God. He is God all by himself. But surprisingly , even though he doesn't need you he wants you. He doesn't need you and yet he wants you.

The moment you realize that God wants you just as you are right now, as you are, things change. The moment you realize that God has a perfect plan for you that would come to pass whether you are dedicated or not, hardworking or not, wise or foolish, you lose control. You let go and choose His plan over yours.

So let them go. Go on your knees and tell God you let go. The house, the cars, the dream. Give them up and watch the pressure fly away with them. Listen and you'd hear a sweeter calmer perfect plan for you.

Let go.

I have a song on MeTube I'd like you to listen to. It's called "Control" and I think it explains all this better. Click HERE to listen. Leave a comment okay? Let's chat over letting go. I'm waiting
