THE NEED TO CONTROL EVERYTHING “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” —Proverbs 3:5–6 This week, we are looking at “Things God Never Meant for Us to Carry.” Yesterday, we talked about the weight of tomorrow.

THINGS WE WERE NEVER MEANT TO CARRY - PT. 1 THE WEIGHT OF TOMORROW “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.” —Matthew 6:34 There are some burdens God never intended for us to carry.

ENJOY THE LIFE GOD HAS GIVEN YOU “This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” — Psalm 118:24 You are allowed to enjoy the life God has already given you. Not every morning has to begin with a problem to solve, a burden to surrender, or a lesson to learn. Not every moment must carry some deep meaning or lead to a major decision.
