Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. (Psalm 68:19 NIV)
Not often, not sometimes, not only when it pleases, but daily—every day, all day long, God carries that which would bury us. As I reflect on these chapters of scripture, this is the phrase that captures my attention and takes me to the depths of my lived experience.
Today, I lift the mortality of a friend, and God liberates it.
Today, I raise a load of concern for travel, and God resurrects it.
Today, I bear worries, distractions, and mental wanderings, and God banishes them one by one.
Praise to the Lord God our Savior!
