Psalm 55:22

22 Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.  Psalm 55:22

I could not think about a better verse to start this blog with. I actually love this verse because of what the Psalmist is telling us to do as a people of God. He tells us to "cast our burden's on the Lord." What does this mean for us? It means that the things that we are carrying around that are weighing us down and keeping us from our potential that God has for us, we need to give it to Him. The hard part is just that. Letting it go. We are human, and we love to hold on to the things that we deem worthy of our time and energy. But things that weigh us down like the "burden of a horse" are not worth our time and energy. 

When we let go of these things, there is a promise that God gives us here. "He will sustain us, he will never allow us (as the righteous ones) to be moved." This means that He will give us everything that we need to succeed in our lives. That doesn't mean that we are going to all be millionaires and have super happy lives. But He will give us the lives that we need for that time! That is what it means to sustain us. He will carry us through. He will also not allow us to be moved. If we are firmly planted on the rock of our salvation, then we will never loose our footing!

Until Next Time...
