God Wants to Carry Your Burdens! In light of so many recent tragic events of one kind or another, it seemed appropriate to share this post again with some updates as we enter this new year. Let go and let God carry your burdens, because He cares for you. Sometimes this is easier said than done, especially with the weight of problems and tragedies in the world. We tend to want to hold onto our “cares” and…
So many unknowns exist in our world today. Do these make you anxious about the future?
