Burdens Too Great

When in my life the burden ahead is too great to bear

Those times of sorrow and self doubt

My legs give way, unable to support, and I fall to my knees

Surrounded by despair, I give the burden to only Him who comprehends and consoles

In that moment, a spark ignites spreading to a cleansing fire that consecrates the soul

And I am eternally grateful for burdens too great to bear

Oh, Stef. You have such a beautiful way with words! This makes me cry just thinking about it. I pray that you and your siblings receive that comfort and peace that you need right now and for the coming months.
