Are you doing your best? Are you expecting the best? Have you done all that you can do? In the words of Norman Vincent Peale, “When you have done all that you can do, don’t try to do any more, just ‘stand.’ Relax, stop, be quiet, don’t fuss about it; you have done everything possible; leave the results to God.”

Yes, when you have done everything possible to change your life, when you have done everything possible to conquer your fears, when you have done everything possible to increase yourself, to move yourself up, to do things that matter, to become who you were created to be, leave the results to God. Why is that? Because you are not in charge of your life. God is in charge of your life. God is in control, not you.
