I seem to have lost an earlier comment, so I’ll start all over again.

Our dear Aunt Carol has always been an inspiration to our family. We loved her deeply as she is the last member of that generation.

May Our Lord honor her as we do.

May His name be Praised.

We had our Easter Cantata singing last night, and it told the story of Christ birth through ministry to the rolling back of the stone on his grave, and His rising from the dead. Great music composed and arranged by our extremely talented pianist. Theme was road to the tomb.

Too Heavy

March 25, 2013

As I started up my car in the dark hours of early morning, I noticed a seatbelt light on the dashboard. I checked my door, opening and pulling it shut again. I tugged on my seatbelt to test it. But the sensor light still beamed. Then, in slow realization, I reached over and lifted my purse a few inches above the passenger seat. The light clicked off.

Apparently, a cell phone, three rolls of quarters, a hardcover book, and my lunch stuffed in my very large purse had equaled the weight of a small passenger, thus setting off the sensor!

While I can easily empty out a handbag, other weights are not so easy to shed. Those burdens of life involve a heaviness of spirit.

Whether the burden that weighs us down is one of guilt such as the one that consumed David’s thoughts (Ps. 32:1-6), the fear Peter experienced (Matt. 26:20-35), or the doubt Thomas carried (John 20:24-29), Jesus has invited us to bring them all to Him: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matt. 11:28).

We are not built to bear burdens alone. When we cast them on the One who wants to bear our burdens (Ps. 68:19; 1 Peter 5:7), He replaces them with forgiveness, healing, and restoration. No burden is too heavy for Him.

Lord, thank You for lovingly carrying our burdens.
In times of trouble, help us to leave those burdens
in Your strong hands and to find our rest in You.
In Jesus’ name, amen.

Read: Psalm 32:1-6; Matthew 11:28-30

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. —Matthew 11:28
Bible in a Year:
Joshua 19-21; Luke 2:25-52

Thank you, Meg. And me, too!

Its so cold and has been blowing snow this morning. I wanted Spring so bad. It may be running late.

I was supposed to pick up a prescription at my doctor’s office but the weather is so bad that Barry is going to pick it up for me. I hated this happened but I can’t control the weather.

WOW..It was 33 here early morning..28 tomorrow!
I want spring to come to you ! Been watching the news and lots of snow reports.

So glad Barry could help out...I know he would not want you to miss getting your meds...or have you out in the snow.
We’ve had .some really nice weather but cold mornings are the norm this week.
