3 Steps to Lifting the Weight of Our Burdens

When I have a burden, I remember the acronym of ASH:

A-Accept the situation.

God has allowed this burden for a reason.

S-Surrender the burden to God.

We must come to God and lay it as His feet. Matthew 11:28-30

H-Have faith that He will lighten the load.

Even a strong faith doesn’t guarantee God will take away the burden but He will sustain us.

Psalm 34:17, Hebrews 11:6

Just as a caterpillar transforms into a beautiful butterfly, we are transformed into a new creature when we are saved.

Four ways God’s love changes us: 

1 - God’s love compels us to love each other. (John 13:34)  

2 - God’s love allows us to forgive each other. (Matthew 18:21-22)  

3 - God’s love makes us want to share the gospel with others. (Acts 1:8)   

4 - God’s love provides peace for our souls. (Isaiah 26:3)  

Let’s have a renewed sense of purpose and commitment to serving Him today as the Holy Spirit renews our minds. (Romans 12:1-2)
