God Speaking...

Once again I trudged myself to the driveway and out on my morning walk/run.  No big results as of yet, and many, many obstacles try to keep me from the thing I desire most...knowing that I did what I needed to, no matter the 'results.'  The gift thus far is my quiet, worshipful time of watching the sun rise.  It's made my 'burden-bearing' much more meaningful... Quiet time to talk and listen and lift up those I love...the ones He keeps laying on my heart♥.  He's busy...Speaking.  This morning Mandisa helped remind me...

 

 Jesus is truly our burden-bearer....

 28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Matthew 11:28-30 

But as brothers and sisters in Him, we are called to bear the burdens of others.  Truly a comfort to me to know that others are with me when my burdens are heavy.  Truly a gift to know that I, in some small way, can be with one who bears a heavy, heavy burden.

2 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ....9 And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Galatians 6:2,9-10
