Have you ever felt as if you are carrying too many burdens? I know that I have felt this way before and although it is hard to put into practise, we all need to try and live ONE DAY at a time. Jesus clearly understood that his followers were burden by many things - BIG things - including poverty, disease, death, illness, oppressive government, religious abuse and hopelessness. Despite all these burdens Jesus still urged his followers to give their cares to him and to walk in faith, one day at a time.
John Newton suggested the same thing:
“We can easily manage if we will only take, each day, the burden
appointed to it. But the load will be too heavy for us if we carry
yesterday's burden over again today, and then add the burden of the
morrow before we are required to bear it.”
May God grant you the Strength to handle today's trials and Faith to know that Jesus will be there when tomorrows troubles come.
Living in Grace
