Quote worth pondering for the day...and it's loosely quoted

"Don't go around looking for the right buttons to push God's trigger to get him to act...just come to Him..."

this was such a timely statement. Lately I have been trying to think the right thing, do the right thing, believe the right thing in hopes that maybe it will inspire God to act a certain way, like a subtle version of manipulation. This is just another attempt at trying to control the situation. God is bigger than that, He can work how He pleases, when He pleases, and with whom and so He has the ultimate control...accepting that God has control and that I CAN TRUST HIM gives us the freedom to come to Him, if that makes sense...

so yeah, control and trust issues are going on here...
