Let Me Carry That For You

 

But when I thought
how to understand this,
it seemed to me
     a wearisome task,
until I went
into the sanctuary of God...

           Psalm 73. 16-17

(We are not going to
       understand all things,
because we are not God,
but we can trust Him in it.
Wearisome in the Hebrew means
    what is heavy and laborious,
that which is too much
   for us to handle on our own.
God invites us
    to come before Him,
even to drag those mysteries
    and boulders
    up to the altar,
to seek Him
and not just a reason.
Let Me carry that for you.)

O LORD,
It is in the heavy
  unexplainable stuff
that we come to realize
that You are God
    and we are not.
Help us to leave
  our weariness with You
and know You more.
And to trust You
in what You are forming in us
for Your goodness and glory.
