Welcome to this weekend's in-touch podcast with Charles Stanley.

If you need rest and peace, go to Christ and let him lift the weight of your troubles from your shoulders.

Let's listen and learn to let God handle your burdens.

What would you say is the most difficult and the most destructive burden to bear?

What you may have in a pen, you'd save the loss of love when something like that.

Now the most destructive burden to bear is the burden of guilt.

Guilt over the past. Guilt over something in your life that you think you can't handle.

Or guilt over something you think will never change and that you can't ever do anything about it.

What we need to ask is this, how are we to handle the burdens of our life?

And I want you to turn if you will to Matthew chapter 11 and look at three verses here.

Here is God's answer, very crystal clear answer to how you and I are to handle the burdens in our life.

Listen carefully. Come to me, all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you and learn from me from gentle and humble and heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

Now wait a minute, I don't see any answer of that, it's here. Just listen carefully.

He says, first of all, come to me.

Well, coming to him doesn't necessarily remove the burden or alleviate it.

Because you know what we do oftentimes? Here's what we do.

We will come to him with the burden and what we say, well I'm just going to turn it over to him.

What we do, we don't turn it over to him, we just discuss it with him.

When they God let me tell you about this, now here's what I feel.

I think if you would do this and so. Here's what you promised in your word.
