casting your burdens

Cast Your Burdens
Have you ever found yourself in the depths of trouble, your heart heavy with grief, or your soul tormented by emotional distress? If so, you're not alone! These are the very feelings that David, a man of great faith, experienced when a close friend betrayed him. He, too, was restless, discontent, and deeply disturbed. Like many of us today, he grappled with the fear of growing uncertainty and the weight of overwhelming troubles, teetering on the edge of despair. Yet, he found solace in the Lord, casting his burdens upon Him.
Friends, David's faith in God's promise to sustain him through every difficulty is a powerful reminder for us today. We are called to trust the Lord our God in a world filled with crisis and chaos that causes fear and uncertainty. God promises to sustain His righteous followers. David's words should not just encourage us but also challenge, inspire, and motivate us to trust and obey, especially in these troubling times. Remember, there is nothing new under the sun! God is with us wherever we go and whatever we go through in this life. So cast your cares on Him! He has promised to sustain us. For greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world!
Onward and Upward+
Fr. Greg
