How to Know When You’re a Control Freak
Sometimes I believe I am my husband’s Holy Spirit. I can see the landscape of his heart, I know what needs to be done, and I am going to nudge him and illuminate his life and change him into a much better man.
This has not gone well for me.
Turns out, I am his wife, and not any part of me is God, let alone the Holy Spirit.
Praise God.
Because trying to change my husband’s heart is impossible and I can feel like a constant drip off a rooftop to him, so says the proverbs. And they are right.
“But if I don’t say something to him about this, who will?”
“But I know if he would just listen to me on this then it will solve so much!”
“But he needs to hear what is wrong in his life!”
Oh dear wife, I know. I know the feeling and desire to want to change and control your husband. But it is not your job.
Let that free your soul. We are free from having to change another person, and that is a gift from God. God is the potter, we are the clay. We are free from the responsibility to create change in our husband. We are free from a weight we cannot and were not meant to bear: molding our husband’s heart. We can trust Jesus with our husband’s heart. Truly.
Jesus came to free us from needing to carry all the loads and burdens. He is big enough and wise enough and gracious enough to change our husbands’ hearts in the time and in the manner that He would like. He is God. We are not. Our job is to love our husband well.
Loving our husband well means not being the Holy Spirit in his life. It means giving him space, freedom, respect, admiration, and a spirit that is not nagging. It may also mean that we shut our mouth when we want to point something out, and trust God to do it. It may mean we pray much more than we speak, and trust God with the outcome. It may mean we practice quieting the need to control, and instead trust God to do it.
For years, I rose early to be in God’s word and my husband slept in. He loved God and knew Him, but was not regularly in the Bible. I tried to be the Holy Spirit and suggest that he start to read more and he resisted. And so I prayed. For years.
And one morning, the alarm on the other side of the bed went off earlier than mine. My husband got out of bed, made some coffee, and read his Bible. It was so amazing and I was floored. He didn’t even tell me he was going to do that. But he had recently heard a sermon on how to be in God’s word and was inspired and moved.
This was God’s work, not mine. All the praise to a good God.
Sister, we can trust God.
He is faithful.
He is good.
He is King.
He knows what He is doing in His good and perfect calendar.
Wife Steps: Memorize Proverbs 27:15 “A quarrelsome wife is as annoying as constant dripping on a rainy day.”
Then, pray with open hands this prayer:
Dear God, I am sorry for thinking it is my job to change or control my husband. I am sorry for trying to be You. You are King and I worship and bow before you. I am not. Show me when to say something and when to be quiet. Teach me how to trust You. Amen.

AT 53 YEARS I WON THE LOTTERY: I am a 53 years old farmer who struggled hard to keep food on the table, When Crops failed my debts grew and hope slowly died.

I rushed to the nearby lotto store and bought a ticket using those numbers, 2 days later I got a notification that I won $5,123,000.

I’m Jeffery Vargas. My girlfriend ended our relationship for seemingly no reason and I came to understand that my financial struggles may have contributed to this, as a healthy relationship is difficult without money and aside from God, having more money is often seen as vital. For spell expertise, Lord Meduza is the right person to turn to. My girlfriend left me for another man due to my financial situation but after connecting with Lord Meduza he created a spell that not only brought my girlfriend back but also made me a lottery winner of €116 MILLION by providing me with the 6 lucky numbers to play the lottery. Everything feels almost unreal but I assure you this is genuine and it’s occurring. My life is incredibly beautiful and I owe my deepest appreciation to Lord Meduza as his efforts are the epitome of excellence.

CRYPTO SCAM RECOVERY SUCCESSFUL – A TESTIMONIAL OF LOST PASSWORD TO YOUR DIGITAL WALLET BACK.
My name is Robert Alfred, Am from Australia. I’m sharing my experience in the hope that it helps others who have been victims of crypto scams. A few months ago, I fell victim to a fraudulent crypto investment scheme linked to a broker company. I had invested heavily during a time when Bitcoin prices were rising, thinking it was a good opportunity. Unfortunately, I was scammed out of $120,000 AUD and the broker denied me access to my digital wallet and assets. It was a devastating experience that caused many sleepless nights. Crypto scams are increasingly common and often involve fake trading platforms, phishing attacks, and misleading investment opportunities. In my desperation, a friend from the crypto community recommended Capital Crypto Recovery Service, known for helping victims recover lost or stolen funds. After doing some research and reading multiple positive reviews, I reached out to Capital Crypto Recovery. I provided all the necessary information—wallet addresses, transaction history, and communication logs. Their expert team responded immediately and began investigating. Using advanced blockchain tracking techniques, they were able to trace the stolen Dogecoin, identify the scammer’s wallet, and coordinate with relevant authorities to freeze the funds before they could be moved. Incredibly, within 24 hours, Capital Crypto Recovery successfully recovered the majority of my stolen crypto assets. I was beyond relieved and truly grateful. Their professionalism, transparency, and constant communication throughout the process gave me hope during a very difficult time. If you’ve been a victim of a crypto scam, I highly recommend them with full confidence contacting:
