He flew a circuit of remote towns in a four-seat plane that threatened to come undone at the slightest gust of wind. Wilbur and Orville had a sturdier aircraft. I could not get comfortable. I kept thinking the plane was going to crash in some Brazilian jungle and I’d be gobbled up by piranhas or swallowed by an anaconda. I kept shifting around, looking down, and gripping my seat. (As if that would help.) Finally the pilot had enough of my squirming. He looked over at me and shouted over the airplane noise, “We won’t face anything that I can’t handle. You might as well trust me to fly the plane.” Is God saying the same to you? Examine the poles that sustain your belief. Make sure one of them is etched with the words “My God is sovereign.” We can always find something to be thankful for, no matter what our circumstances may be. When we give thanks to God, it helps us to remember all of the ways He has been faithful to us in the past. This can give us hope for the future. More to the point: I've constantly found the actions of others upsetting, including fellow Christians. I regularly see or hear people of the faith saying or doing things that would have landed me in big trouble if my mom had seen, heard, or even found out about me acting that way. While I respect my mom's guidance, because I've matured past my rebellious teenage years, I still often think: Why are these people saying or doing all that mess? When my mother and I have talked, she often tells me that you can't control other people; you can only control yourself. This book has the same message, and talks about how control freaks are the unhappiest people of all; the more they realize they can't control, the more frustrated they get. Maybe it works for people who just need encouragement to keep on going in their current lives and structures. And that is great...but it did not impact me at all other than straight disagreement with the core premises. It wasn't even deep enough for that disagreement to become a dialogue partner for me as well... nothing that even challenged me to wonder why I disagree so completely.
