Burdens No More ~ CD Swanson
Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. (Psalm 55:22)
Jesus is both Friend and Savior and will always protect us. We can seek shelter in His arms. He will ease our burdens when we lay them at His feet. His yoke is easy and light, and He will help us in all aspects of our lives.
As humans we’ll eventually experience tough times–however, it’s when the walls of adversity hit us and how we handle it that will separate those of faith from those without faith.
Jesus is the one that tells us to “lay our burdens at His feet” and to accept “His yoke” –and when we do…Praise God, it’s so much easier to maintain an inner sanctuary of strength and determination through Christ our Lord.
Life is a series of ups & downs. Life is a kaleidoscope, ever-changing, fascinating, colorful, spectacular, and intricate. Life is a mountain one moment…you’re high atop it, and the next moment you’re at the bottom of the valley. But, with each changing moment, it’s so much easier with God in your corner. God never vacillates; He is a pillar of strength, our rock and our refuge in terms of our fate and His promises. He is our sanctuary, and His gates are open to provide all that we need.
A believer who trusts in the Lord will receive the peace that Isaiah 26:3 promises. But unshakeable peace doesn’t happen instantaneously; it is procured through a consistent relationship with God. A lifestyle of dependence upon Him is the key to weathering storms.
Do you want peace?
Seek God, feel His love and experience the love of a lifetime. Amen.
