TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER.

"Then Jesus said, Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest" ( Matt. 11:28; NLT). Does it mean that if even God is aware of the situation, He would still want us to bring it to Him? The answer is very simple; you have a role to play, and you cannot ignore it and expect to receive anything from God. Have you seen a doctor going round looking for patients? It is the sick who run to the hospitals for treatment. It is the same thing with God. He wants you to come to Him with your problem (sickness). The emotional sickness, spiritual sickness, financial sickness etc. Some people think that because God is All-knowing, He sees the problem and so is expected to render solution. But even though the Lord knows all your problems, He wants you to trust Him and turn to Him, and ask for His help. When you don't take everything to God in prayer, you forfeit your peace and carry needless pain. So take it to the Lord in prayer and He will surely give you rest. AO@TWD
