The Urge To Organize

Have you ever had an urge to sort through all the clutter that fills your living space? I know I have. I feel that way today. And I've realized something about this urge. It's not random. It's the result of something. The result of my need to control my life. And the reason it shows up at certain times is because those are the times when I feel like my life is getting out of control and chaotic. So I guess organizing my papers and deleting useless files on my computer is just a way to feel a false sense of control, when in reality, I can't control my life. Only God has control over my life. I'm trying to rely on Him, but it's not easy, even though I know I can't really do anything. It's kind of like the zipline at River Valley Ranch. Everyone who rides it is attached to the cable with a harness and tether, so they don't have to hold on to anything in order to not fall. But almost everyone holds onto the tether anyway. I'm glad God is continuing to work in me, helping me to trust Him more and more.
