Their are several in our church that are in need in prayer. All of us struggle from day to day with sickness, death of a loved one, problems with our children and just day to day strife. But, Jesus is always there. He promises never to leave us and to always be there by our side to give us the strength and courage to make it through another day. Even during our darkest hour, standing somewhere in the shadows we will find Jesus. He is so faithful to forgive us of our sins and help us through any trial we go through; even if the trial is brought on through a fault of our own. When our burden is so heavy that we feel we cannot walk another step, he will be there to lift that load for us.
In Matthew 11 Jesus tells us, 28) "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." 29) Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30) For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.
