When I am overwhelmed,
you alone know the way I should turn.
MATTHEW 11:28 (NLT)
Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest."
When it's all more than you can handle turn to Jesus for relief.
DAILY FODDER
What kinds of burdens do you carry? How heavy do they feel today? Why do you think Jesus wants you to let him deal with it all?
PRAYER
Gentle Savior, thank you for watching over me and caring for me. Forgive me for trying to do things with my own strength. When my faith wavers and my spirit is faint, you hear my prayers and carry my burdens. True rest comes from you alone. Teach me to cease striving and let you do your work in me. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
