Give your burdens to the Lord and He will take care of you.
Psalm 55:22
NLT Bible
This is a wonderful promise for us as children of God. Now more than ever so many of us are weighed down by burdens and concerns. We feel overwhelmed and this sometimes fills us with a sense of hopelessness and despair. At this moment, people are worried about the future, their children, paying their bills and trying to stay safe in the midst of surrounding uncertainty and chaos. So many are tired and drained of all their strength and energy.
God wants us to give our burdens to Him and let Him take care of us. We don't have to allow them to defeat us and rob us of our joy. When we do, His peace fills our hearts and minds and fear leaves us. However, this can only happen if we first give our cares and concerns to Him and then refrain from dwelling on them. One thing that will divert our thoughts from our problems is to be concerned about the needs of others and be proactive in helping them. God is always faithful to His promises. We just need to claim them.
Thank you Lord for caring for me. I feel bogged down by my burdens but today I choose to give them all to you. You have promised to take care of me and I trust you. I love you, Jesus. Amen!
Be Blessed!
