Bike Handlebars

Releasing my “rights” to myself to God feels like taking my hands off the handlebars of my bike and allowing Him to steer from behind me. I can only reach the handlebars close to the yoke which makes it impossible for me to steer. If I grab the bar by the handles God will respect my choice and allow me to mess things up. But when I let go of my rights and trust Him, He will guide me and hold the handlebars far back where there is much more leverage. I feel very out of control – which I am. Therefore I have to know Him well enough to be able to trust Him to keep me balanced and keep me from falling off as well as guide me in the right directions through all the harrowing turns and threatening obstacles.
