"If a burden is laid on my back and another immediately takes it off and carries it himself," said Meister Eckhart, "it can make no difference to me whether it is one or a hundred pounds."

In the Scriptures, there would seem to be three kinds of burdens recognized. First, the burden of loving help which we are admonished to give to others: "Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ" (Galatians 6:2)....

THE Lord's people are often heavy laden, their burdens are heavy and their grief great; but the Lord kindly directs them to cast every burden upon Him, and promises to sustain them. Guilt in the conscience and a sense of sin in the soul, often prove an intolerable burden; but the Lord will remove it by the blood of His Son, and the whisper of His Spirit. The care of a family sinks the spirit, and fills with distress; but Jesus says, "Cast them all on Me." Losses, crosses, enemies,...

"Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain thee; He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." Psalms 55:22

It is a heavy burden; roll it on Omnipotence. It is thy burden now, and it crushes thee; but when the LORD takes it, He will make nothing of it. If thou art called still to bear, "he will sustain thee." It will be on Him and not on thee. Thou wilt be so upheld under it that the burden will be a blessing. Bring...

"As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me." Psalms 55:16

Yes, I must and will pray. What else can I do! What better can I do? Betrayed, forsaken, grieved, baffled, O my LORD, I will call upon Thee. My Ziklag is in ashes, and men speak of stoning me; but I encourage my heart in the LORD, who will bear me through this trial as He has borne me through so many others. Jehovah shall save me; I am sure He will, and I...

Care, even though exercised upon legitimate objects, if carried to excess, has in it the nature of sin. The precept to avoid anxious care is earnestly inculcated by our Saviour, again and again; it is reiterated by the apostles; and it is one which cannot be neglected without involving transgression: for the very essence of anxious care is the imagining that we are wiser than God, and the thrusting ourselves into his place to do for him that which he has undertaken to do for us. We attempt...

Who is there that hath not a burden? - who that stands in no need of relief?

The burden of ignorance weighs heavy on one man. He finds himself so lamentably in the dark with regard to many most important things. The burden of responsibility weighs heavy on another. The burden of some secret frailty, some unconquerable weakness oppresses another. The burden of doubt is crushing to this sin-tormented soul. The burden of mortality, the fear of death, is more than another can bear. The...

Some one may say: " He will never allow the righteous to fall away; but what right have I to regard myself as righteous? Of what avail is this promise to me?

Well, it is of none, if thou art not righteous. In that case, the wrath of God abideth on thee; there are no promises for thee. But are there no promises for such as hunger and thirst after righteousness? Yes, for they are righteous. The Publican went down to his house, justified rather than the Pharisee. To look unto the...

Psalms 55:19

"God, who is enthroned forever, will hear them and afflict them. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God."

Some changes are grateful, adding to life's pleasure. In travel, the ever-changing scene, with surprises at every turn, new vistas from every hilltop, give unspeakable delight. What a dreary world this would be - if it were only an...

Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved. § I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For YAH, the Lord, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.’Why are you fearful, O you of little faith? § Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds...

I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself.”—In his love and in his pity he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.—Like an eagle that stirs up its nest, that flutters over its young, spreading out its wings, catching them, bearing them on its pinions, the Lord alone guided him.

Even to your old age I am he, and to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I...
