TODAY'S LESSON: LIGHTENING YOUR LOAD
CASTING ALL YOUR LOAD UPON HIM;FOR HE CARETH FOR YOU.
I PETER 5:7
WITH EVERYTHING THAT’S GOING WRONG IN THE WORLD TODAY
IT’S NOT EASY TO BE OPTIMISTIC.
AT TIMES OUR BURDENS SEEM SO HARD TO BARE,
BUT JESUS SAYS:
TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU, AND LEARN OF ME,
FOR I AM MEEK AND LOWLY IN HEART:
AND YE SHALL FIND REST UNTO YOUR SOULS.
FOR MY YOKE IS EASY,
AND MY BURDEN IS LIGHT.
MATTHEW 11:29-30
BUT WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN LEARNING ISN’T ENOUGH?
GO TO THE ROCK!
GREAT, AND JUST HOW IS A ROCK SUPPOSED TO HELP ME?
…UPON THIS ROCK I WILL BUILD MY CHURCH;
AND THE GATES OF HELL
SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT.
MATTHEW 16:18b
NOW, THERE’S JUST ONE PROBLEM HERE.
SOME PEOPLE,
AFTER GIVING THEIR CARES TO GOD,
DECIDE TO TAKE THEM BACK.
TRUST ME, YOU’LL HAVE PLENTY OF THINGS TO DEAL WITH TOMORROW SO JUST PUT IN GOD’S HANDS.
LEAVE IT THERE.
TAKE THEREFORE NO THOUGHT FOR THE MORROW:
FOR THE MORROW SHALL TAKE THOUGHT
FOR THE THINGS OF ITSELF.
SUFFICIENT UNTO THE DAY IS THE EVIL THEREOF.
MATTHEW 6:34
OK, THAT FEELS BETTER!,
BUT WHY DOES LIFE HAVE TO BE SO DIFFICULT ANYWAY?
OH, THAT’S EASY.
FOR WE WRESTLE NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD,
BUT AGAINST PRINCIPALITIES,
AGAINST POWERS,
AGAINST THE RULERS OF THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD,
AGAINST SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACES.
EPHESIANS 6:12
