My girls have been asking me for days to try making homemade bread. I just recently got a new bread machine and I kept putting them off because I didn’t want to have to carry that heavy bulky box in from the garage…but alas today is the day, I finally agreed. As I was getting ready to go get the box God nudged me about the other heavy things I am trying to carry on my own. The things that are much too heavy and leave me struggling under their weight. He reminded my heart that He is much stronger and could easily carry these burdens, that the only thing I need to do is come to Him and ask. I love when God gives us a beautiful reminder right in the midst of every day life, isn’t He wonderful? So today I choose to go to Him with all of the heaviness I have in my heart and ask Him to carry it for me, for it is easy for Him.

What are you carrying, friend?

Let’s choose to let God do all of the heavy lifting for us and not break our backs trying to do only what He can.
