Leave Your Troubles With God!

Good Morning Christian Peeps! I have often talked about giving your problems over to Jesus and trusting that he will take care of them. Here is a portion of a story that I read that I thought might illustrate it well. "A man walked into a telegraph office wanting to send a telegraph. However there was a snow storm and he was concerned that it might not make it to the man he was sending it to. He stated several times to the operator about how it probably wouldn't go through and wanted to know what he thought. The telegraph operator had become impatient with the man and when he ask him what he thought...he simply said.. I'm not running both ends of this telegraph line. I'm only responsible for this end. I am sure that there is someone at the other end of this line who probably knows his business, and he will get the message to the one for whom it is intended. There is no point in trying to carry the resposibility for him. I'll do my part on this end, and leave the rest to him." I love this line...how many times have we prayed to God to help us with a problem but instead of letting him take care of it....we continue to hold on and worry. In Matthew 6:33...the Bible says "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." When we seek Him first, he takes care of the rest! How great is that! Chuck McMurray wrote..."Leave Tomorrow's troubles to tomorrow's strength, tomorrow's work for tomorrow's time, tomorrow's trial to tomorrow's grace and to tomorrow's God."
Be Blessed by turning it all over to him!
