Big shoulders

Pile your troubles on God’s shoulders— he’ll carry your load, he’ll help you out. ~ Psalm 55:22 (MSG)

Don’t be anxious about anything; rather, bring up all of your requests to God in your prayers and petitions, along with giving thanks. ~ Philippians 4:6 (CEB)
Lord,

THANKS: I grateful for your big shoulders.

REGRETS: I'm sorry that I don't always release my anxieties to you. I mistakenly think that I'm so special that I can carry all my own problems.

INTERCESSION: Lord, I am giving you my problems right now -- even the problems I don't understand.

PURPOSE: I'm going to live without anxiety because my problems are no longer my own. You have taken them onto your shoulders. I'm not planning to take them back from you.

Amen.
