Release Control

Spiritual warfare 101,
It's not about control, it's about the truth in his love,
I relinquish control because my control is based on fear,
Behind fear the root of insecurity and inferiority is near,
Gaining your own control only cuts down the weed,
It will grow back if you don't remove the roots that you see,
You can plant flowers around it all you want,
From a distance you can't tell what that garden is not,
We are God's children...his blood runs through our veins,
His blood washes through all the fear, heartache, and pain,
With every invention there is an inventor,
And with every creation there is a creator,
The invention cannot work on its own,
It needs the inventor to make it go,
If I rely solely on myself it's a trick, I'm deceived,
Because feelings can be the worst indicators of truth, you see?
