The Control Checklist

A calming, printable guide for anxious hearts, sensitive mothers, and anyone who forgets what’s truly in their hands… and what belongs to God.

There was a time I believed that if I worried enough, prayed hard enough, sanitized everything enough, I could keep my loved ones safe.

I didn’t even realize when my love slowly turned into fear.

As a mother, it showed up in the smallest ways
— over-sanitizing my child’s hands
— worrying every time she coughed
— praying in panic instead of trust
— imagining every worst-case scenario
— feeling responsible for everyone’s safety

I kept forgetting a simple truth:
there are only a few things I can control — the rest is in God’s hands.

The harder I tried to control the uncontrollable,
the more I exhausted my mind,
drained my spirit,
and disconnected from the divine protection that was always there.

So I created this checklist.
Not as a product, but as a soft reminder for myself.
A grounding ritual.
A way to return from fear to faith.
A way to remind my mind that:
I am responsible for my actions, not the universe.
My effort matters, but divine timing holds everything together.

If your heart runs ahead of you…
If you worry too much about the people you love…
If you pray from fear instead of surrender…
If you try to control what was never yours to carry…

Then this checklist is for you.

🌙 A Note from My Heart

This checklist is not about giving up control.
It’s about remembering that you were never meant to control everything in the first place.

Let this be your daily exhale.
