I Thought It Was Just Me - Part 3 - My Need For Control

[@gail4721]

I needed this message. Never thought I was a control freak until listening to you. But now I am going to trust God with the details of my life ❤️

Thank you Fr. Anthony for another Awesome series, you are so right about praying, trusting and relying on our experiences with God. I've been on this journey for so long, that it has become my normal to look to God for everything at all times. Now, trying to resolve a conflict on my own, is very, very short lived. I look to Christ and I hold on for my life. Christ is alive in my life and he guides my steps. Feeling the Grace of God, is worth everything to me. As I wright this, I can see all the times God has acted in my life. Yes, God speaks to me and I do hear him!!! Faithful Tita

Sometimes I think that one's anxiety pushes him to work harder. What do you think about that? Isn't a good result of being anxious for some stuff?

[@jennamartin1208]

Personally, I think that anxieties for me, like Abouna said, doesnt help or make the situation better. When I have a goal and I decide to be anxious about it, it has proven to be counterproductive and it makes achieving that goal so much harder. Its good to have self motivation and drive for whatever it is you want to achieve but I feel like prayer and knowing that God is in control and is by your side is much better for motivation (in my opinion)

Hi Phoebe! This reminds us of a quote that Fr. Anthony likes to use from St. Augustine: "Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you."

Thank you for sharing, but Can you please fix the audio recording? The volume goes up and down and makes it hard to hear.

[@STSAChurch]

Hi Abel! We will definitely look into it. Thanks!
