    I'm currently a widow and have been dealing with many responsibilities. I really get frustrated with myself for not trusting the Lord. I've been a believer for 50 years .I can look back over my life and see many times the Lords faithfulness and care. I am again in a season of facing new challenges and yet I struggle with resting and not being full of anxiety and fear about my future. Thank you for this encouraging message. It's 4am ,obviously I'm worried. Lol

      May God be with you in this trying time, And don't be afraid to ask others for help, And let go of unneeded burdens, downsizing to give yourself less to contend with if possible. Though I know it's hard to do. May God bless you with much comfort.

    - Pastor John explains the concept of casting anxieties on God using a village defense analogy.
    - The key to casting cares is trusting God's promise and his ability to carry the burdens.
    - God is not served by human hands; He gives and provides, not needing help from us.
    - Casting cares involves trusting God's might, care, and promises, lifting the burden of anxiety.

    I’m struggling with years of crying out, feeling better for a day, then my trust being worn back down as the burdens are indeed not lifted. It leaves me tired and angry, unequipped for the tasks at hand, my heart aching to pour out the love He’s put in me on others, to use FINALLY to use His gifts, only for the rug to be pulled out the moment He seems to have lifted the burdens. Then I’m terrified by the growing bitterness at the conflict between how others describe the promises and what actually happens. It’s like I see and hear the splashing and cries of joy of people in a river while my feet are held between boulders on the shore and all I can do is stick out tongue, hoping some of the splashing will reach me while I wait for the boulders to be lifted. I’m still standing but I’m increasingly struggling to not give up. If I just wanted to feel better I’d dive into some New Age or Joel Osteen brand nonsense, but I don’t.

      Book of JOB. I know it’s rough. I’m going through a lot as well. Sometimes I just wonder why. Why this test of life. Why not just heaven? But for ways higher than us. I just have to accept it. Pray and search for Jesus. Because I don’t know how to make it in this world with out him. I’m definitely not perfect. I’m tired. And time seems fleeting. But we have to keep the fait. It’s an endurance race. Lord help us all get closer to you. In Jesus name, Amen.

It’s that he doesn’t and I’m praying I’m reading I’m seeking. Of course not perfectly but it hurts all the more knowing he could fix my issues self inflicted or not and doesn’t. I grow in bitterness and hate that. I know I’m not doing any favors to God believing in him but this pain is great and I just want relief

    I believe that is easier for a person who’s on the outside looking in to say have faith because they’re many troubles in this life. Having doubts fears worries emotions aren’t wrong and from my experience as a believer, I’ve been tempted with many of these, and fell into them. It’s when we allow our emotions to follow our heart completely rather than being honest with God of how you feel, what we’re thinking, and GOD in His unconditional underserving loved hears us because He is the great counselor.

    0:56 - The problem with the village and the King analogy is that the invading army is a future threat. Many of our cares are a current pain, problem, or difficulty that is putting great pressure on our soul. You still experience the pain and the pressure whether you trust or don't trust, so the analogy is useless for current pain.

  • @AJTramberg
    @AJTramberg Рік тому +2

    I've never really understood what I think has almost become a cliche at this point..."Trust God". What few people ever say though...is trust Him to do what, exactly? Fix the situation? If its trust God that we will one day see heaven through Christ, then, yeah, ok, I'm all on board. I fully believe He will keep His promise. If it's that everything is part of God's plan, and bad stuff is part of the plan, well, that seems to be most consistent with our experience. I'm not sure how it's much of a comfort to the parent who has to take their child off of life support. " "Turn it over to God, its part of a plan you may never understand."
    I'm not sure that's how most people interpret that though. I think many people comfort others in a hard situation with "Trust God", thinking that God has promised to protect us from bad things. I don't think that's true. Sometimes we trust God, and the tragedy or loss we were "trusting" about happens anyway. Bad things happen to Christians every day. Death, disease, job loss, divorce, depression, financial collapse. Jesus said in this world, you will have troubles. Suffering is a HUGE part of the New Testament. So perhaps "Trust" means to not worry about whatever is going to happen because it will all work after we pass to the next life?
    I struggle to understand the context of this doctrine, as it seems to shift around a lot.

    • @tadmusic6898
      @tadmusic6898 10 місяців тому

      Yes, it is a cliche because the Biblical examples given are all clear promises of God to specific people. In most cases of our suffering today, there is not a specific promise given to us directly in which we can trust. We are just called to trust in the general promises of God(for the future) without really knowing if or how He will deliver us in the present. This works with a background understanding of vss like Jn 16:33(life will have trials). But would be nice if this reality was preached on more, rather than just the cliches.

    C.s. Lewis comments that every arrow of Satan is targeted to perseverance. I too feel bad when I say okay I trust you to take care of this but then find myself worrying about it again. I think this is a test to keep reminding ourselves to trust in God's character, to forgive ourselves for doubting even as he forgives us, and to be grateful that God keeps his promises.

Knowing all this gives me SOME comfort. However, My problem/anxiety starts when I wonder what God will allow me to go through. Will I be able to endure it or not!?!? After all look at what He allowed His Son and all but 1 of His Disciples to go through. 😬

      I have this fear also. I’ve been in chronic pain for yrs, bedridden at times, homebound a lot, surgeries, procedures, not having pain control bc of the opioid epidemic. I’m only 40. I feel guilty for my anxieties and unstable mind (depression, suicidal thoughts). I know God is doing this for my good, to draw me closer to Him, make me rely on Him, and grow my character. When I had 1.5 yrs of good health around 2020, I ignored Him. I needed this discipline from a loving Father. But oh God, how long can I keep going like this?? I fear the future (although I know I shouldn’t fear), how to care for my aging parents 300 miles away when I can’t even make the drive there. My soul hurts and cries out to Him. Our Savior knows our pain and distress. Jesus suffered greatly on earth, even before he suffered the wrath of the Father for the sins of His people. Oh Lord, hear our cries and calm our spirit. Give Cindy and I and all Your people greater trust and reliance on You. Help us to have joy in You whether our circumstances are easy or hard. During times of prosperity, I tend to forget You, and I thank You for drawing me back. You are all that we need.
      Edit to add: God has used me more during my times of physical pain and distress than any other time. My brothers and sisters see my deeper trust in God and that I can raise my hands in worship even while crying through the pain. Even though I feel weak and ineffectual, God is using little ol me. He’s made me bolder to proclaim the Gospel to the lost. Our days on earth, our suffering, is temporary. Let’s take comfort in Him and lean on the Body when we’re in need. One day we’ll be worshipping at His feet forever!

    I understand what you’re feeling and I pray that you will sit quietly alone and ask Jesus to settle your mind and body down and sit in his presence. You will feel his presence. Sometimes before I do that my mind is so burdened that I first say lord Jesus please take my problems and fears and decisions and worries. I put them into your all powerful hands. I need your help I don’t know what to do and I don’t trust my own thinking to even know if you are speaking to me. I tell him each problem. Then I sit quietly before Jesus and relax my body and mind the best I can. And then I slowly feel his presence and I sit there with him for as long as I feel I should then I pick up my Bible asking the Holy Spirit to give me understanding and knowledge of His word. I just open it and read the psalms or wherever and start reading. He will speak by stopping you when reading where your eyes will just go back and read it over and over.

I like the part where Jesus said *THE SON OF MAN CAME NOT TO BE SERVED BUT TO SERVE ETC.* But exactly how does that impact ME ????????????????????????????? I mostly think of myself as a character very similar to Ebeneezer Scrooge. And this is what he said when told the poor often cannot take advantage of available social services and are dying as a result. *WELL THEN LET THEM DIE TO DECREASE THE SURPLUS POPULATION.*
