Every day “little burdens” trouble our souls and weigh down our hearts like a backpack strapped to our shoulders. One more struggle added to a medium-sized load causes a sigh to escape from our lips and our shoulders to droop.

I felt that way recently when I lost a small, costly and needed item…a hearing aid. The moment I realized it was missing, I gasped, sighed, and closed my eyes in disbelief. It had been a busy week serving the Lord, and this day had been especially full. When I realized the problem I was in a place where I could do nothing. I couldn’t get up and go search for it because we were at camp sitting in a service.
