Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you


Psalm 5:22
Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.

The Lord encourages us to place our burdens on Him. There is no mention of the types of burden, but it may be various burdents. From the context of the Psalm, this burden may be that of unjustified persecution, or being persecuted for following Yshua. It could be a burden arising in service to God's people, perhaps the workload is too heavy. Or perhaps it could be a burden that we carry because of our personal sins.

Whatever it may be, learn to cast it onto the Lord. The Scripture here says that He will sustain us. In another passage, it says to exchange with His burden which would be lighter on us. So we must come to our Lord with  our burdens instead of drifting away and trying to solve ourselves.
