When does trying to control situations that are out of your control become a detriment to inner Peace?

Question

Peace and Love

Answer 1

Because when you trying to control situations, like a fight at home, and all you do is mess things up. You are going against God's will for man, to realize that God is the master of all things and he is the one that ultimate control over all things on this planet earth, like global warming, the weather, hurricane season, personal relationships, the human body functions, and so forth. It is said in the holy bible that whenever we take something into our own hands, we really mess it up and destroy it, while when we give it to God, he will heal it and only make it much better than it actually is and could be in the future.

Answer 2

Whenever a person tries to control situations that are out of that person's control it becomes a detriment to their inner peace.

Answer 3

When you take everything too seriously and when you take everything too much to the heart!
And, btw, controlling situations and people is the wrong way to go - therefore naturally something disbalancing to inner peace. Moreover, it often has zero effects - people will do what they want, situations will roll out as a combination of millions of variables that are beyond our control.
All we can do is act wisely on what we CAN truly influence, and leave the rest on the general order of the universe... and always hope for the best.

Answer 4

The minute you think you can control a situation your inner peace is destroyed, because the only thing you can control is your response to what is going on.

Answer 5

The words "trying" and "control" are ego-blocks. Ego desires only to keep its hold on you and your perception of the world.
What happens when we try to remember something? The more we try, the harder it is to remember, but when we let it go, at some point, what we wanted to recall suddenly appears.
This is because there is no effort in mind. By trying, you are shutting off your reception of inner peace.
It is not so that you have situations out of your control, for everything that you see occuring, whether with you or the world at large, is asked for at some level. Certainly not consciously, but deep within, we all ask for this separation from the truth of who/what we really are.
You are created of peace. It is the truth of you. Only focus your power there, (and now is always the point of power); it is always here for you, because it IS you. Nothing is out of your control, for there is nothing you need to control.
Say this: "Let this pass from me; let it pass to my understanding that it never was."

Answer 6

Try to emit peace, love, joy and happiness from your inner being, forget trying to control what you think is out of control when it may only be within yourself that perceives something to be out of control. All have lessons in life to learn and control is out of proportion to GOD'S will. Trying to overpower others and make them do what you want is like a dictator. GOD is the dictator of love and decision making for all. If we as humans don't listen and go outside of the realm of HIS laws which bring us contentment, we shall lose inner peace and it shall forevermore be detrimental to life.Not all things are wrong as some believe them to be. It seems as though looking through rose colored glasses is only a personal perception and concept to the one that is wearing them.......
