Thoughts For Today

Have you ever found yourself to be overwhelmed by your commitments?  All the while your heart was right and you “felt led” to volunteer for just one more worthwhile activity, but you did not take the time to seek what the Lord had for you.  After several late nights and juggling your schedule to accommodate the carpool, the workload, the children’s schedule and your husband or wife’s needs, you were literally crying out to God and begging Him to remove some of the load from your shoulders?  As you pour out all of your grievances, our Lord listens patiently.  Then, from within your spirit, you are reminded that His burden is light and His yoke is easy (Matthew 11:30).  While you are discussing the reasons for taking on more than you can handle, simply stop and ask the Lord His will and His plan.
