A father and his young child returned home after a trip to the grocery store.
The child loved being with her/his dad and wanted to help him finish the chore.
In fact, she/he wanted to carry the largest bag, (- which was much too heavy for her/him,) - inside.
The father had a simple solution.
He put the bag in his child's arms and then picked her/him up and carried both inside.
What a 'true' picture of how our Heavenly Father works within us.
He loves our willingness to take on any assignment.
But He knows what we can and cannot do in our strength.
When the load is too heavy, the assignment too big....., He still honors our willing spirit by lifting us up and allowing us to do His work.
He empowers us to accomplish more than we can in our own strength.
Consideration....
Do all you can - but realize it is God's power working through you that makes the difference.
The Lord doesn’t promise to give us something to take so we can handle our weary moments. He promises us himself.
That is all....
.....And that is enough.
Shalom...
