Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee. The Lord can sustain you and give you strength when you finally let go of the burden, which has made you weak. The Lord is not going to carry your burden around, but He will carry your burden away. The scripture says, “Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror has overwhelmed me.” Sounds like many of you quote that scripture after leaving the doctor’s office. What do you do with a bad report, which is cast upon you? Do you walk around worrying about it until it destroys you? Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee. If He can carry the sin of the world to the cross, He can carry your burden away. The Lord is stronger than our own self will. When we are weak, He is made strong in us. When the Bible says that we can do all things through Christ, that includes giving Him our burden. Remember, His burden is light.
