Lay Your Burdens Down

 

“All I want is you…Jesus. You are my reward.” – William McDowell

Ecclesiastes 1:8 NLT Everything is wearisome beyond description. No matter how much we see, we are never satisfied. No matter how much we hear, we are not content.

Until Jesus is all we desire and all that we want, we will never know true contentment, peace and victory.  You may be saying this is a little extreme, but think about your life for a minute.  Outside of Christ, are you content? At peace? Do you feel that you have everything under control?

Some may say that they don’t feel that way, even with Jesus.  And I would have to comment, that there still must be parts of their lives that need to be totally surrendered unto Christ. I know it is this way with my life.

Paul writes to the Philippians in Chapter 4, verses 11-13;

This medicine has not so many ads that any kind of surgery then do discuss it with the doctor as a levitra without prescription wrong step can cost you a lot. Instead, it cialis 20mg no prescription is a jelly that can be consumed easily by placing it under your tongue and permit it to disintegrate totally.

I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. 13 For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

It’s in and through our relationship with Christ, that we are able to endure all things, be at peace with all things and through His power alone, subdue those lusts and selfish desires of our hearts.

It is at this point, that we can sing, “glory glory, hallelujah; since I laid my burdens down. I feel better, so much better, since I laid my burdens down.”

Isn’t it about time we Christians really began to enjoy our relationship with Christ?  He’s already offered to take own our burdens and worries and offered us to take on His yoke, for it is much easier for us.

When Jesus is all that you want…He will be all that you need.

Know that you are really free. Be encouraged.
