JACQUI’S MEDITATION.
Hand them over
Travelling along the highway to the coast and there were plenty of grey nomads in their caravans and motorhomes to share the road with. Often, those types of vehicles have a sign on the back letting you know what the owners are up to. For example, Going Fishing, Living the Dream, Making Memories. The best one that I have seen is – Once were Worriers, what a statement – not worrying anymore, just moving on and enjoying it!
Worrying and being anxious will certainly reduce the joy in your life. The good thing is that there is no need to carry worries or problems on your own. Remember the old saying ‘A trouble shared is a troubled halved’? But even better than that, God has told us that he will take our burdens. Trust him and have faith that he is as good as his word. After all, he has already proven it time and time again.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, 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.” Matthew 11:28-30
