Are you burdened? Do you feel forced to carry a burden that seems to heavy to bear? Look to God. He specializes in lifting man's burdens!

Read these promises from God . . .

"The Lord lifts the fallen and those bent beneath their loads." (Psalm 145:14, TLB)

"He lifts the burdens from those bent down beneath their loads." (Psalm 146:8, TLB)

"Give your burdens to the Lord. He will carry them." (Psalm 55:22, TLB)

Yes, you read correctly! Believer, God is able and wants to carry your burden! Give it to Him!

Prayer: "Lord, you know the burden that I am carrying. I feel like I can't carry it any longer. Thank you for offering to carry it for me. I give it to you this moment. Thank you for helping me. In Jesus' Name, Amen."

Blessings!

Forgiven!

God promises that confessed sins are forgiven. "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (I John 1:9)

God also promises that forgiven sin is removed from us.

"As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us." (Psalm 103:12)

Thank God for the forgiveness of sin!

Blessings!

"Called To The Mission Fields"

Did you know that all believers are called to the "mission field"?

Jesus said, "Go and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19a).

The "mission field" that all believers are called to is "wherever you are". Our places of employment, buisnesses, neighborhoods. The people we meet everyday! (One of the members of our church recently led a 96 year old man to faith in Christ while purchasing a garden tiller!) You can win others to Christ. Ask God to open your eyes today to the opportunities you will have to share Christ!

Blessings!
