Most people in America weigh more than they should, or want to. We have all sorts of diets, because it’s not healthy to go through life with a heavy body. Neither is it healthy to go through life with a heavy spirit. When you partake of things like gloom, bitterness, negativity, worry, selfishness, frustration, pride, worldliness, hopelessness, and fear, these things make your spirit heavy. So go on Messiah’s diet. He said, “Come to me all you who are weary and heavy laden, and I’ll give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart and you shall find rest for your souls because my yoke is easy and my load is light.” This is Messiah’s diet— 1: Know that you’re not alone. He loves you and He cares for you. 2: Give Him your burdens and trust Him with all of them. 3: Learn to be humble of heart, as He is. Get your eyes off yourself and become like a little child. That weight you’ve been carrying around will lift off, and your heart will become light.
From Message #188 - The Joy of Humility
TODAY'S MISSION - Get your eyes off yourself today. Humble your heart, and become like a little child. Cast your burdens on Him and lighten your load.
