I gave my baby to my daddy to hold for a while and you know, “men with babies” The baby was worrying him whilst he was doing his work on the computer. So, I took the baby away from him and he immediately felt relieved. He even shifted his position to concentrate more on his work.
That is how our heavenly father takes away our burden and we feel relieved. He said, in his word, cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7).
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30).
“He carries us with our burdens and make us light to move about freely”.
In another scenario my 11-month-old baby was trying to climb onto a sofa, she tried many times, but she couldn’t. So, I picked her up with ease and put her on the sofa then she chuckled. She couldn’t climb onto the sofa because she had little strength. I carried her with ease because I had more strength than she had. In the same way we should quit handling things that we cannot handle.
The master handler who handles everything in his big arms is what we need, and he is ever ready to handle things for us, if we allow him. His grace is sufficient for his power is made perfect in weakness.
Quit Handling What You Can’t Handle
