Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. “Psalms 55:22′

Have you been in a situation that is draining, either physically, mentally or emotionally? Have you been so confused in taking a decision, worried or anxious about a need? As humans, different phases of life come with its troubles. Inability to proffer solution to our problems or find relief can cause us to feel burdened. Pressure to meet deadlines at work, family responsibilities, loss or tragedy can clutter our minds, thereby increasing stress. Feelings of guilt for doing wrong, unforgiveness, bitterness, sorrow or sadness can burden our hearts if they linger. Usually, the issues that puts extra weight on us are beyond our control. When we bear our burdens alone without sharing or seeking help, we become worn out and retrogress.

When we go through situations that are beyond our capacity and control, we should be aware that God is always with us to help. Instead of being in a state of depression due to the weights we carry in our hearts, we should rely on God and allow Him to bear our burdens. We would find rest for our souls if we can trust God with our troubles and cast them to Him. God is closer to us than we can imagine and He is always there to help and guide us through.

Let us pray:

Dear Lord, almighty Heavenly Father, as I read Psalm 55:22, I am reminded of Your promise to sustain us and carry us through the journeys and challenges of life. I confess that I often try to carry my burdens alone, instead of trusting in You and casting my cares upon You. Help me to release my worries and anxieties to You, knowing that You care for me and will provide for my every need. May Your peace fill my heart and mind, and may Your strength empower me to face each day with confidence and hope. Thank You for Your unending infinite love and faithfulness. I pray this throughout the mighty, glorious, fulfilling name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Much LoVe, JoY, Peace and Blessings through Jesus Christ, our almighty wonderful, infinite loving, glorious, dear Lord, Saviour and Redeemer, in who we faithfully abide, trust, believe, and abundantly do receive throughout His marvelous righteous Word and His truth fulfilling Holy Spirit.
