“Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.”
Psalms 55:22 NLT
How many of us are carrying our burdens continually? We can put them down but fail to do so as worry has tied them to our backs. TA Webb wrote a problem shared is a problem halved. The Apostle Peter said,”cast all your cares on Him as he cares for you”(1 Peter 5:7).
What are our burdens? Concerns about tomorrow, regret about today or yesterday. Concerns are usually financial, or relational. We have either done something or not done something.
All of these are worrisome thoughts that bind us and keep us from living in Christ. A solution is to bring them to the Lord and repent of any sins and ask for forgiveness; seek the Lord’s guidance; hand the worry to Him and ask Him for His peace, which He promises to give. “ My peace I give you, not as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid” (John 14:27).
Lord I give you my concerns and fear, and ask you for your peace, which You promise to give. Amen!
