How great is the burden Jesus chose to carry for us on the cross

Hearing people share about the burdens of their lives...and God placed a burden in my heart for them. Just as Kenny and I were praying in the car, the burden that was building in my heart was just so much that I just cried...It was such a gut-wrenching feeling that I knew it was the Holy Spirit grieving...

It brought to my mind the burdens that each and everyone of us carries, past hurts, regrets, current problems or situations and broken relationships. How deep and heavy those burdens are...and yet Jesus chose to carry all these heavy burdens for us on the cross...As the Spirit brought me back to the cross, I'm just deeply reminded of what Jesus did on the cross for me...He took all the burdens I couldn't bear...and He can do the same for you too. He is asking if you would just let go of your burdens and look to the cross of deliverance once again.

He is our Prince of Peace...where love, hope and peace abides.

Amen! Indeed, Jesus took it all at the cross and died for us. He has taken all our burdens away.

Rach, thx for everything. Especially, the prayer in the car. I really felt the need to and really relied on the Holy Spirit.

Praise God for everything.

Be Blessed!
