How can you hope to grow without being stretched, without being tested? Where do your faith and security lie? From whence do you draw your strength and power? Are you trying to live this life on your own strength, relying on the self to pull you through? If you are, you will not be able to withstand the stresses and strains all around you. But when you place everything in My hands and allow Me to guide and direct you, you wil be able to do anything because with Me all things are possible. Do you feel the burden you are carrying is too heavy and that you have been given far too great a task to carry out? Why not start right now to cast all your burdens and cares upon Me, and let Me navigate you through these troublesome waters? I will pilot you through every difficulty into calm and still waters, and free you from every strain when your faith and trust are wholly in Me.

我怎麼能期待會成長，卻不要被拉伸，不要被考驗？我的信念與安全感又在哪裡呢？我從何處獲得我的力量與動力？我在嘗試靠我自己的力量活出這個生活，依靠我的自我幫我度過難關嗎？如果我正是如此，我會無法承受在我周圍的壓力與緊張。但是當我將一切都交到上天的手裡，並允許上天引導我、指引我，我將能夠做到一切，因為與上天一起任何事都是有可能的。

我感到我所肩負的重擔太過沈重了嗎，並且我被交予了太過宏大的任務去完成？為什麼不從現在開始，將我所有的重擔與擔心都交與上天，讓上天來載我渡過這讓人煩惱的水域呢？每一個困難上天都會為我引航，帶我進入平靜安寧的水域，將我從每一個壓力中解放出來，當我的信念與信任完全地在上天這裡。
