We desperately want to control ourselves, others, and our circumstances, but we are so weak and needy. Something in us hates God’s sovereignty… but he lovingly welcomes us into his presence and invites us to tell him just what we think about how he’s running the world. Read about all that (and get a funny video) in the top 5 posts from February.
