"....WHAT HE HAS GIVEN YOU"

"Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved  (shaken, totter')."  (Psalm 55:22)

The Hebrew Interlinear has it: "Cast what He has given you on the Lord...."  Now this is powerful in that, perhaps, what we have viewed in our sojourn as too "heavy," something to be fought against, rejected, is really a gift "from" Jesus.  

Perhaps there is something in our text of what King Jesus tells us in, "Come to Me, all who are weary ('who work to exhaustion') and are burdened, and I will give you rest....For My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light (or, 'not burdensome')."

Father, in Jesus' Name, I pray that You continually correct any erroneous interpretation of Your Words.  Amen.

When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
Hebrews 12:2
