"I would rather have a big burden and a strong back, than a weak back and a caddy to carry life's luggage."--Elbert Hubbard
Sometimes my burdens seem too heavy to carry. I realize that, when compared to those of others, they are light, but I am a selfish being and ftend to ocus on my own problems.
When those burdens seem too heavy, I complain. I whine. And sometimes I even whine to the Lord. He chastizes me, reminding me that He has blessed me with a strong back. I have but to use it, to lift myself, to lift another.
This I know for sure: no burden is too heavy when shared with the Lord.
What a geat quote. I like it a lot.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but can I have a wheelbarrow to carry my burden and get strong arms? Sometimes, a change of pace would be nice.
