Perhaps the reason many of us have a struggle with letting go and allowing God to be in control is simply because we have been condition in thought from birth to be mature in our acceptance of responsibility and accountable in our life and not in faith of God at our own birth.

We are taught from the time we are born to be dependent on our parents, family, teachers, authorities, and so on. As we have grown up, we are then conditions in thought by the same people ( society ) to transition that dependency onto ourselves in a ever increasing level of mature acceptance of self responsibility and accountability. Sad really.

Imagine if we were taught from birth to have faith in God above all. Perhaps then we would no longer have any struggles to allowing God to be in control instead of ourselves. Image what our life would be then.... :excl:
