Whatever it is that’s jostling around in your mind

causing today to seem incredibly overwhelming or unbearably mundane

has no power over you if you remember one thing:

God wants to be in the middle of every part of your day.

Whether it’s chest-crushing grief or simply another pile of dirty laundry that has your mind spinning for a way to escape, never forget He’s right there with you.

He wants to lift the grief a bit so you can breathe deeply.

He wants to add a flare of fun to the laundry.

That’s how He works.

He lifts and He adds.

He’s the burden-lifter and the joy-adder,

and today He longs to do both for you.

Take everything to Him today.

And watch what He can do for you.

Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.

Psalm 68:19

 

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him,

so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 15:13
