He's Our Burden Bearer
Are you worried and troubled about so many things? …Yeshua said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28) The burdens we face are too heavy for us to carry. That is why the Lord tells us to cast all our cares on Him. He cares for us. “In fact, God wants to help you out of your troubles. He wants to take away your burdens that are crushing you. He wants to load your table with plenty of food.” (Job 36:16 ERV) He will prepare a table before you in the presence of your enemies (Psalm 23:5) In Matthew 11:28-30 (MSG), Yeshua says: “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
Blessed be the Lord— day after day he carries us along. He’s our Savior, our God, oh yes! He’s God-for-us, he’s God-who-saves-us. —Psalm 68:19 (MSG)
