Don’t Try Handling It Alone

Matthew 11:28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Often, part of the reason we feel “heavy laden” is because we are trying to do everything in our own strength instead of taking it to God!  You want to rest from the struggle, but...

Matthew 6:30-34,  “If this is how God clothes grass in the field ~ which is here today and gone tomorrow, thrown in an oven ~ won’t He much more clothe you?  What little trust you have!  So don’t be anxious, asking, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ Or ‘How...
