Cast thy burden upon the Lord and He shall sustain thee.” Psa. 55:22²²Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. (Psalm 55:22).

A dear old Christian was feeling how unable he was to meet the troubles and sorrows and difficulties of this life; so he said to the Lord:

“Lord, Thou knowest I am a weak child, and cannot walk; Thou must carry me.” Someone asked him,

“What answer did the Lord give you?”

“It was as if He said to me: “Well John, if you must be carried, you must keep little,” He replied.

“He shall gather the lambs with His arm and carry them in His bosom.” Isa. 40:11¹¹He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young. (Isaiah 40:11).

Go to Him, dear boys and girls, for strength; tell Him all you feel. There is nothing too great, and nothing too small for Him to notice, for He is God.

“His love is as great as His power,

And knows neither measure nor end!”

“To this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and that trembleth at My Word.” Isa. 66:2²For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. (Isaiah 66:2).
