God always encourages us to place our burdens on him.  When we encounter an encumbering situation we can seek relief in Him.  He desires to take our experiences and bring light to them.  I believe it is our perspective that needs the adjustment, not the experience.  I know that often when I am asking God to take away the burden I usually mean the experience.  But God is not going to remove something that will cause me to grow more in love and patience.  The “burdens” that I experience are my gifts.  I am only hampered by them when I see them as being something that “should” not be.  But whenever I am thinking that something “should” not be that is, I am arguing with reality.  Funny, I don’t usually win when I am fighting with what is.  I have two choices, I can either accept the situation or change the situation.  Given that most situations involve things out of my control, the only that can be changed is my perspective.  This is where God steps in to relieve my thinking, open my eyes to the gift that is standing before me in the form of difficulty. God is God in all situations, God transforms all situations and experiences for the good.  Nothing is wasted. My prayer for you today is that you may be open to having God change your perspective, not your situation.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
