Day 3: Surrendering What You Cannot Control

Reading: 1 Peter 5:6-7

Devotional: "Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you." Not some of them—all of them. Today, try this exercise: draw a line down a piece of paper. On one side, list what you can control. On the other, what you cannot. You'll likely find the "cannot control" side much longer. Here's the freedom: God never asked you to manage that side. Your job is to surrender it. His job is to handle it. What you can control—your attitude, your faith, your obedience—focus there. Everything else? Release it into His capable hands. Surrender isn't giving up; it's giving over to the One who holds all things together.
