Oftentimes, we face circumstances beyond our control where God requires steps of obedience that are humanly impossible to accomplish. Based on our human proclivities, this causes our control-freak nature to react in three primary ways: anxiety, depression or anger. Yet God demands we take responsibility for powerlessness, rather than pity ourselves. When we assume the posture of humility, we align ourselves with God’s grace.
How do we differentiate between the strength and power of God and the authority of human bravado? Counterfeit authority strikes poses and constantly clashes with those who seek to disciple us. Godly authority, although decisive, comes through tenderness—even weeping—so that the un-adulterated power of God becomes visible.
