From Psalm 55:22: “Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never permit the righteous to be moved.”
Life’s stumbling footsteps
Sullen heart weighed down
Darkness at doorstep
Day’s final breakdown
Burdens never light
Load much too heavy
Collapsing at night
Floodwaters’ levee
Spirit’s tiresome tone
Christ walks alongside
Merciful seeds sown
Faith breathing, clear-eyed
Shelter’s welcome place
Prayer’s trusted reach
Overflowing grace
Christ’s faithful outreach
With every new day
Worry taking flight
Christ’s open gateway
Now traveling light
From Matthew 11:28-30: “Come to Me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.”

When you worry about what you don’t have, you won’t be able to enjoy what you have.
From Matthew 6:25: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?”
Charles Swindoll (born 1934) is an American pastor and Christian author.
