Beyond Me

There's a song lyric that goes, "It's beyond me--I cannot carry the weight of a heavy world." With the exception of "Jesus loves me," I doubt there's a line more meaningful for today's people. So often we rush through life taking on more and more, trying to get more, accomplish more, go farther faster. We do our dead-level best trying to single-handedly take on the weight of a very heavy world...and we just can't bear it. It is very much beyond us. So we spin our wheels, running ourselves into the ground. And we do this spiritually and emotionally as much as we do it physically. Folks, you don't have to try to carry the world all by yourself--which is good, because you're not able to. God is waiting to help you bear all of your burdens, and there's nothing He wants more. He already died to keep you out of hell, don't you think you can trust Him to help you with the rest?
