👑 Scroll of the Crown: The Strength to Surrender

There’s a kind of strength that doesn’t roar.

It doesn’t fight.

It doesn’t chase.

It doesn’t tighten its grip when things feel uncertain.

It releases.

It breathes.

It lets go.

That’s the strength I’m learning right now.

Because control isn’t the same as leadership.

Micromanaging every outcome isn’t emotional stability.

And chasing certainty at the cost of your peace?

That’s not faith. That’s fear in disguise.

The truth is, I’ve wasted too much time trying to force what wasn’t ready.

Trying to predict what wasn’t mine to know.

Trying to hold it all together when God was simply asking me to hold my posture instead.

And somewhere in the middle of all that tension,

I learned something:

Peace doesn’t come from controlling the storm.

It comes from learning how to stand in the center of it, without flinching.

Letting go doesn’t mean you’re giving up.

It means you’re grounded enough to stop forcing what’s not flowing.

It means you trust what’s being built behind the scenes more than what you can manipulate in the moment.

It means you’re finally moving with God’s rhythm, not your own anxiety.

You were never meant to carry it all.

You were meant to walk with wisdom, respond with presence, and leave the outcome to the only One who sees the full picture.

So today, I let go.

Of trying to control the outcome.

Of trying to predict the timeline.

Of trying to hold everyone and everything together in fear.

And in that release

I find breath.

I find peace.

I find posture.

I find strength.

🪞 Crown Mirror Reflection

1. Where am I gripping too tight, and what is it costing me in peace?

2. Am I confusing control with leadership, or fear with strategy?

3. What am I trying to figure out that may be asking for trust instead?

4. Have I given myself permission to pause… or am I still trying to outrun discomfort?

5. How would I move differently if I believed that releasing control is how I win, not how I lose?

🔥 Final Reflection: The Surrender That Builds Strength

Letting go doesn’t mean I stop showing up.

It means I stop straining.

It means I trust that my peace is more powerful than my panic.

That my presence does more than my pressure.

And that sometimes…

The most powerful move a King can make is to open his hands—

and trust that what is meant for him is already on the way.

Because it’s not about controlling everything.

It’s about posturing yourself to receive.

That’s leadership.

That’s surrender.

That’s King’s Posture.
