Jesus is the answer for the world today. Above Him there is no other. 'Cast your burden upon Him for He cares for you'. When affliction overtake us, we seem to forget that we should pray. Sorrow and pain or regret should never be a reason to refuse to pray to Jesus. If you will take your time to talk to the Lord, you will find that He has been waiting for you.
The song writer in Psalm 88 had many disappointment and affliction yet he still went to God in prayer. 'O Lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee, Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; for my soul is full of troubles and my life draweth nigh unto the grave'. When overwhelmed with the consequences of your sin what should you do? Pray.
Are you weary and heavy laden, tell it to Jesus in prayer. He is a friend you can trust. Hear His words of assurance and certainty-'Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.'
You need not bear the pain alone. It is a priviledge to carry everything to Him in prayer. Would you?
