letting go of the control

So what Do we control anyway??
not much I am thinking So why do we try and hold on to it (control) so tightly? Our fingers wrapped securely white knuckled at times around something that is an illusion CONTROL - like smoke and mirrors it looked one way until the smoke clears and you find you are seeing something else.
This illusion of control is in so many areas of our lives and reality we can control very little - this last couple of weeks here in Indy there has been storms & tornado's we can not control the wind there are people who do not live in flood plane areas yet are in 5 foot of water how do you control the wind or the rain?? We do not - only God does... and children we raise them up we teach them whats right and whats not - yet they walk out the door pretty as you please and do what it is they want to do with little regard to your "control" over them SOOO why do we even think we have control ? How do you just let go release those fingers one by one and laying back in the knowledge that God is in control .
