My Load is Enough

Numbers 9:8 (New International Version) Moses answered them, "Wait until I find out what the LORD commands concerning you."

Sometimes we pick up things that are not ours, but if you did this without praying about it then you could be in trouble. Have you ever committed to a task that you really were not gifted to do? I have taken on responsibilities because no one else would do it, or so I thought. Later I found out that someone else was just about to accept the task when I had opened up my mouth. I burdened myself with a task when God had someone else line up for the job, so I was doing things in my own strength without God’s help. If only I would have sought the Lord, He would have told me just to wait. I did not give Him time to talk to the other person; I did not trust Him to take care of things. It is good to walk where God guides and trust Him when He says to wait. My load is enough and I certainly do not need to add things that are not in God’s will.

Love and God Bless,
