In Your Presence

In the song In Your Presence, it is sung...
(by Chris McClarney) 
"In Your presence 
Is where I want to be
In Your presence
Is where I'm made complete

Lord my one request
Let me see Your face
This one thing I ask
Come fill this place

I give You control
I give up my rights
Cause Your ways are higher than mine
With all that I am
With all of my life
‘Cause Your love is sweeter than wine"

I find some pretty powerful lines in that song. "I give you control"...really? The idea of giving up control is almost unfathomable!  "I give up my rights"...takes me back to a previous post we wrote (refer back here).  

Challenge: If we know "your ways are higher than mine", then why do we so often resort to our own understanding?
