       God does care about what we want. He just doesn’t dig it when we desire it too strongly. And when giving up control, you don’t have to actually give it God. Sometimes that procedure makes the practice of this seem too stressful—and it can place an overall sense of obligation of keeping a new commandment. You simply can just give it up to yourself. I have personal testimony to this fact because this was one of the things I was holding onto—that of finding a spouse. I remember I gave up control of the situation to myself (it wasn’t a promise I made to God or anything like that) and I didn’t tell anyone about my decision. About a week later, I was visiting with my mother on Sunday afternoon and without me mentioning anything at all in regard to this, she told me that she had had two dreams where she saw me in church with my wife and children. After she described my children, of course, I asked “What did my wife look like?” She had a basic description. This technique bore fruit for me very quickly.
