OUR BURDENS

“Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.”

Hebrews 13:5

King James Version

Ralph Carmichael wrote a beautiful hymn about our precious Saviour  “Reach Out To Jesus”.  I love these words.  “Is your burden heavy as you bear it all alone?  Does the road you travel, harbor dangers yet unknown?  Are you growing weary in the struggle of it all?  Jesus will help you when on his name you call.”

There are times when we go through dark valleys and we don’t have to if we will only ask Jesus to help us.  Jesus really loves us and He cares when we are discouraged and going through dark valleys and He wants to help us.  Jesus said  “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).

Heavenly Father, I pray for all who are discouraged, please comfort and encourage them as You have done for me so many times.  I love You so much and I appreciate all You have done for me.  Thank You for adopting me into Your family and for the privilege You have given me to serve Jesus.
