This song by  Amy Grant reminds me that I don't have to bear everything by myself. Too often we think that the burden is ours to carry as we trudge a solitary path through life. As Christians we will even spiritualize it and laden our prayers with overwhelming responsibility.

But God says we were never meant to bear the weight of the world, only Jesus His Son can. Jesus says: Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

"Lay down your burden. I will carry you, I will carry you, my child, my child."
