Go and Trust God

SCRIPTURE

“Come to Me, all you who are weary

 and burdened, and I will give you rest.” 

— Matthew 11:28 

PRAYER

Jesus, You are gentle and compassionate toward weary hearts. I believe all who are weary and burdened can come to You and You will give them rest. 


Lord, I grow tired from carrying burdens You never intended for me to carry alone. Worry, fear, emotional exhaustion, and striving have weighed heavily upon my heart. Sometimes I hold tightly to stress because I fear what will happen if I let go. Please help me release these burdens into Your loving hands and trust that You are able to care for me more perfectly than I ever could myself.


I surrender my fears, worries, emotional burdens, and exhaustion into Your care. I trust that You are able to carry what feels too heavy for me.


Thank You for inviting me to rest in Your presence. Thank You that I do not have to strive endlessly to hold everything together. I trust You to sustain and strengthen me daily.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.



REFLECTION

What burden have I been carrying that Jesus may be asking me to finally lay down?

Release your fears, burdens, and plans

 into God’s loving and faithful hands.

"Be still and know I am God" 
- Psalm 46:10
