This quote is taken from my book, Prodigal Wisdom, (available through Amazon.com).
"We had to face the truth and that meant turning away from our concerns about appearances and what our peers would think of us as parents. We had to face the delusion we were living and look at the reality of the situation. We had to turn away from the notion that we had some influence and control. WE HAD TO TURN TOWARD THE LORD..who did have power and control."
Although we were facing our son's addictions, I do believe the principle expressed here applies to many life situations...we have to face the truth , the reality, of our circumstances and turn them over to the Lord.
"And he asked them, ' Why are you so afraid? Do you still not have faith in me?' " Mark 4:40,NLT
