We love a good plan. The dream job. The dream person. The dream apartment with excellent natural lighting. Ideally all arriving on schedule, with minimal character development required. Nothing wrong with knowing what you want. It's just that life has a funny way of ignoring our very thoughtfully curated timelines.
And then there's Jesus, in the garden of Gethsemane, praying, “Not my will, but yours be done.” Not because what He was facing was easy, but because He trusted His Father completely. It's a pretty radical kind of surrender. Not giving up on what matters, but trusting God enough to loosen our grip on how everything has to turn out.
Because sometimes self-control looks less like resisting temptation and more like resisting the urge to micromanage the universe. You can work hard, want beautiful things, and make ambitious plans without making your peace dependent on getting your way. God's wisdom isn't limited to what we can see from here. And maybe there's something wonderfully freeing about not having to figure out the entire plot.
Have the vision. Lose the god complex.
Inspired by Luke 22:42: “Yet not my will, but yours be done.”
