My burdens, by Lost~N~lonely Subscribe to rss feed for Lost~N~lonely 

        I lay My Burdens

There are so many things that you just don't know.

So many emotions , im not willing to let go.

It all continues to bubble up inside.

But somehow I hide it, act as if NOTHING is wrong.

I need to just let it all go.

And get rid of all of this stuff that keeps bothering me.

I'm just afraid of what I may say or do.

I lay my burdens on the table and pick them back up.

Realizing not only have I added more, but it's over
whelming.

I must not let you know what they are. 

For you may not be able to handle it.

And then my burdens would only continue to multiply.

I hope it won't become too much.

I hide my burdens when Noone is around, that way they can
not be found.

You know, I cna relate to this. This is how I felt last week. Sorry if you don't believe in Christ, but I just want to let you knwo how this relates to me. I thought I could handle my own problems, sometimes I gave them to others. I found, when I went to visit a friend, that no I couldn't handle them, for every one problem I had, I found another added to pile, until I couldn't take it, I burst out in tears. Yet, my friend was praying for me, and I gave my hurts to Christ, my burdens because his back is big enough to take it. I had to find trust and faith and it wasn't easy either. Yet, I knwo that at the breaking point Christ came and saved me. Now a week later, I have found peace, I still have a way to go with my burdens but I have had to learn about a God who takes them onto his back and died upon the cross for those many hurts, those many burdens and those many pains. If you don't agree with this fine, that is your choice, I'm not here to dominate your beliefs, to tell you this is what is right, I am just telling you what my beliefs are, how I have found comfort and hope. How I found perfect peace? Even in this broken world
