Acceptance: A Poem

Giving Up Control

To Something Greater Than Me

It Is Quite Freeing


There are many things that I could deem greater than myself. A good cause, a drug, a desire. AA and NA say that something greater than yourself could be as simple as a door knob. There are many things in this world that are greater than I am. I am, however, referring to God Himself. Over the last 9 months God has taught me how to let go of the situations and people in my life that I sought to control out of fear. It has only been through giving it to Him that I’ve been able to experience peace in the midst of the destruction going on around me. I thank God for His peace.
