description: (hide) David Grabbe, reflecting upon William Hensley’s poem Invictus, examines mankind’s obsessive desire for control.

The father of the faithful, Abraham, unfortunately did not always rely on faith, but occasionally took the expedient way (wanting to exercise control over the details), attempting to speed up God’s timetable, but reaping some bitter fruit in the process. We have areas of our life directly under our control (such as overcoming our human nature), but must relinquish control( as father Abraham) of the major details of our lives to God Almighty’s sovereign direction . <\/p>\n
