“Daily Help”
Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden. Psalm 68:19
Are you trying to carry all of your burdens by yourself? If so, it’s no wonder you’re weary. The Father never meant for you to carry everything all alone. Rather, He’s given your more than you can bear so you’ll allow Him to sustain you. So don’t be surprised that you cannot help yourself. God makes himself know to you by rescuing you from trouble.
However, your desire to manage everything may reveal a deeper problem. Perhaps you do not fully trust that the Lord is enough to meet your needs. Although you trust Him for salvation, you may think He is either too busy or unwilling to bear your day-to-day needs.
But think this through carefully: How can the One who paid so dearly for your salvation deny you when it comes to the trials that affect you daily? He cannot . In fact, not only does He know exactly what you need, but he desires to satisfy your soul to the depths of your being. So relinquish your problems to the Father. He can certainly handle anything that comes your way.
Charles F. Stanley – “Every Day in His Presence”
I don’t know about everyone else but I needed this one today with everything going on in our lives daily. In the past I would stress and worry for days on end about everything. For the past 11 months God has specifically challenged our family to trust his plan, his timing , and his provision. We have learned that through obedience and fully trusting him with the little and big things he has always met our needs and most times surpassed those needs. I still worry and stress some but Im certain the good days certainly out weigh the bad days because I am willing to hand it all over to the One who can take care of it all.
Until tomorrow
Tim
