Read Psalm chapter 68

VERSE:

Psalm 68:19–Praise be to Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.

TRUTH:

He daily bears our burden. This is simply a statement of fact, no conditions or requirements. We are to praise Him because He is our Savior and He bears our burdens. The question becomes, do we let Him bear our burdens? Instead, we often tell Him about them and then take them back to lug around on our own. We seek to carry them instead of releasing them to the One who can carry them. Are we allowing Him to do what He wants to do, daily bear our burdens?

RESPONSE:

Father, I know You handle burdens better than I do, yet I keep taking them back. Instead, I will praise You and life You up and allow You to bear my burden, for they are too big for me and threaten to crush me. Today, I surrender them to You.
