Controlling How You Live
Although we do not control where or when we die, we can control how
we live and what adversity in life does to us in the meantime. The idea
of taking charge, of taking on life rather than letting life take on us,
is not so revolutionary an idea on the surface. However, the idea IS
revolutionary underneath. The idea of controlling our life is
revolutionary when we take charge of our heart, our mind, and our soul.
For many of us, our life seems to be controlled by powers and forces
beyond our control. We do not control our aging. We do not control some
of the issues we face in our health, in our relationships, in our
finances, or in many of the other aspects of our life. However, if we
want to do so, we can control how we respond to what we face in life. We
can control whether we respond with despair or with hope. We can control
whether we respond with weakness or with power. We may not control many
of the exterior circumstances of our life. We can control our interior
circumstances. We always have a choice in controlling our life. We
always have a choice every minute over how we will and can respond to
every circumstance.
