Today word prompt: Burden
The burdens the Lord brings
Or allows into our lives
He never meant for us to carry them alone
He has a good purpose and plan
A design for each one
He knows our burdens and cares for each one of us
A burden that will cause us
To repent of our sin
Cry out to the Lord for forgiveness
A burden that will reveal
Our weakness and deep abiding need
Cause us to depend and rely upon the Lord
A burden that will grow and change us
Take us from selfish and self-focused
Develop a compassionate and caring heart
The Lord invites us to cast our burdens upon Him
He is the Lord and daily bears our burdens
We in turn are to bear one another’s burdens
Won’t you come to the One who invites you
Take Christ’s yoke upon you and learn
For His yoke is easy and His burden is light
