Burdens abound

These days seem so full

Time seems so short

New things to learn

Jobs to be done

Stuff to prepare

Reading to be done

Cleaning needs doing

I need a break

That's why God's so great

He's the burden reliever

If we just let Him have it

If we trust Him fully

It will be gone forever

All the cares and worries

That cloud our veiw

All the thing to be done

That make us forget about Him

So let us let go

Put God in control

Let Him guide us through

These long weary days

Were burdens just abound

Let the cares of this world

Be done away with

Let the things to be done

Be given to Him

Let us not worry

About time being short

Or that we are doing things wrong

Remember that God's in control

When we give Him the reins

Let Him take your life

And make it His own

Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

1 Peter 5:7

My life feels a bit like this at the moment and I have to keep reminding myself to give it to the Lord. I'm going through one of those times when everything just seems bigger than it is. Trying to balance the needs with my time can be hard. It's often a struggle to enjoy it because you are so focused on just getting the thing done that you forget to learn and enjoy the small things. For me I think at the moment the biggest struggle is starting a new job, trying to get to know all three kids and not do something in a way that makes it so different from what mom or dad would do. It's trying and I often just forget to enjoy it all and slow the pace of life down.

I pray that you to may be able to just let go of somethings in life and enjoy all that you do, as you do it for the Lord. 

To not worry, but let Him take the reins

Worship the King

Dear brother and sister

Let us worship our King

Let us draw near

On bended knee

O offer your life

As a daily sacrifice

Give it with thanks

As an offering to Him

My your heart sing with mine

Of all the wonders He has done

For the way that He loves us

Redeemed us as His

O my brothers and sisters

Let us love one another

Just as Christ loved us

Through good times and bad

Let us be there for each other

To laugh or cry 

Let us be so united

That our fellow brethrens circumstances

May affect us in a way

That we may symphysis with them
Each day may we all
Become more like our Saviour
Our brother and example
May the way that we do things
Shine like a light
To all those who see us
Wherever we are
So my brother
And my sister
Let us show forth our praise
In every possible way
By the things that we do
And the words that we say
