Let Me carry that for you,
let Me have that heavy load
give Me all of your cares
all the tears that have flowed.
Give Me all your discomfort,
all the pain that you still feel
give Me your grief and sorrow
so that your life I can heal.
Let Me take from you,
the pressures on your mind
give Me all your worries
and your fears of every kind.
Give Me your tiredness,
the weary beat in your heart
let Me take on that burden
that is keeping us apart.
Let Me have your concerns,
and I will give you perfect rest
let me have your anxiety
I know what for you is best.
Let Me carry that for you,
place it all here in My hand
let Me carry that for you
then in Me ~ you can stand!

Matthew 11:29-30
King James Version
“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for
I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall
find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is
easy, and my burden is light.”

Let the Lord have whatever it is that is a burden to you now and He will deal with it for you. So much truth for us to hold on to and claim in Matthew 11:29-30 that we should write it down and carry it with us at all times. ~ God Bless You ~

Sometimes I can actually hear the Holy Spirit tell me . . . Let Me have that, give that to Me, I will take that from you . . . and I simply give over the thought for Him to have, or the problem to solve and leave it there with Him. It is amazing the peace I get from just living it all with Him. Our God is so good . . . Amen and Amen! ~ Blessings ~
