We all carry baggage and unresolved issues. Have you gotten God involved in your baggage? Some leave Him out of the loop. Have you prayed to Him lately about your baggage?

Sometimes we have been carrying that baggage around for a very long time and it is heavy.

Your post reminds me of this book I happened upon many years ago. You may know of it. There are some thought-provoking analogies in it.

Jesus (My wingman) has taken all my baggage. It took a long while, and now I'm free to get on with life.

If I do ever have an issue come up, and I'm not sure what to do. Jesus and myself just formulate a plan to combat those evil spirits that roam the outer wastelands looking for someone to devour.

God inevitably does get involved in my baggage. I've learned to pray about my problems early and it helps. Fairly often my prayers tend to be about having the strength to deal appropriately with the people involved.

@missmuffet Amen. This is so true. 

I praise God for the scriptures that assure us He is always willing and able to take that baggage from us. He wants to 'lighten our load.' :)

"Cast your burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain you: he shall never permit the righteous to be moved." (Psalm 55:22)

1 Peter 5:7 (Two renditions of this verse)

"Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you." (Berean Study Bible)

"Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." (NLT)

As David Letterman used to say.....  “ I wouldn’t give my troubles to a monkey on a rock”

one of my favorite verses during times of trouble is this one—“ blessed men GO THROUGH valleys of weeping    

Key words being...... “ GO THROUGH”
