Matthew 11:30 (NKJV) 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Some people are feeling very hurt on the inside today. They are carrying around a heavy burden, blaming themselves and walking under a heavy cloud of depression.

God is willing to lift it off us if we are willing to do our part in following Him. If we are willing to try each day, walk out His statutes, and obey His words, He will lead us out of this heaviness.

Psalm 119:145 (NKJV) 145 I cry out with my whole heart; Hear me, O Lord! I will keep Your statutes.

Are we willing? Or do we love what we are involved in so much that it has become our way in this life, and we are willing to let it take us down?

Only we can decide this. Our spouse can’t decide for us. Our parents, teachers, best friends, etc., can’t make this decision for us. No one can make us be willing. It is solely a personal decision.

If this is speaking to us today, don’t wait until we think we have it all together before we step out and ask God for help. Do it in the midst of our heaviness. He will meet us there. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-19-18

Psalm 57:2 (NKJV) 2 I will cry out to God Most High, To God who performs all things for me.

Have we ever felt depressed to the point where we don’t want to make a move one way or the other?

We find ourselves sighing, over and over again. We are so down that nothing seems fun anymore. Nothing makes us happy or joyful. We have no desire to do anything.

We just want to be alone. And if we could, we would just sleep it all away, hoping that when we wake up, the pain, sorrow, sadness, and torment will all be gone and we will feel better.

Today we want you to know that no matter how down things seem or how low you feel right now, you’re going to make it. God has a way of wiping that dark cloud away when we cry out to Him. When we finally lay all those things down that are troubling or concerning us, when we let them go, He will turn things around and make it better over time.

Don’t lay there wondering any longer. Get up, and know that today is going to be different! Put one foot in front of the other and move forward a little at a time. Things will get better as we take that first step.

Psalm 40:2 (NKJV) 2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps.
