Who's in the Driver's Seat?
We all like to be in control. We want to do things our way and plan our lives according to
the hopes and dreams we envisioned for our lives. But what if that isn't the best God
has for us? What if, by letting God take control, we could experience even greater joy,
happiness, and fulfillment?
The wisest man to ever live, King Solomon, wrote about this very topic of relinquishing
control in Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own
understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."
In God First for a Better Life, author Dr. Colvin Blanford guides the reader through many
of life's most difficult situations and scenarios, illustrating the benefits of putting God at
the forefront of your life. Once you give up control to God and put Him first, you will be
able to navigate all of the speed bumps and detours life throws at you, using God's
Word as your guide.
