Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with God-inspired courage:

“…they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship.”
(Jonah 1:5)

Wow.

Is there anywhere in my life I need to do that, Jesus?

What baggage am I carrying that is

slowing my pace
weighing me down

keeping me from achieving what You’ve put me on this earth to do?

It’s hard to let go of things I’ve always done

even when it’s obvious to me and everyone else they’re no longer productive.

I’m willing to carry any burden You’ve assigned to me.

But I admit there are times I’m afraid to lighten my load

because I’m afraid of what others might say or do.

Down deep, I know that spirit of fear does not come from You.

O God!

Please give me the strength to bear the burdens that are mine

and the courage to cast off the rest.
