Burdens are Lifted at Calvary

Posted by on April 17, 2006

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
~Matthew 11:28

I can’t even pinpoint exactly what I’m struggling with, but this whole semester has been an emotional struggle for me. I pray that God would help me to be thankful and to praise His Name during this time. As a result of many difficult things, He has drawn me closer to Him this semester.

Today’s hymn in my devotion book, Burdens are Lifted at Calvary by John M. Moore, is very encouraging.

Days are filled with sorrow and care, hearts are lonely and drear;
burdens are lifted at Calvary – Jesus is very near.

Cast your cares on Jesus today, leave your worry and fear;
burdens are lifted at Calvary – Jesus is very near.

Troubled soul, the Savior can see ev’ry heartache and tear;
burdens are lifted at Calvary – Jesus is very near.

Chorus: Burdens are lifted at Calvary, Calvary, Calvary;
burdens are lifted at Calvary – Jesus is very near.
