Leave it at the altar

Many times we petition God for our needs using the vehicle of prayer. Many of us fret and worry, wonder and fuss, stress and get worked up, all because we don't trust God with our situation. We are so different than the next person. Our problems are unique. And evidently our God is not quite big enough or powerful enough to handle our individual situation. So instead of leaving the request at the feet of the Master, we take back the petition and decide to fix the problem ourselves. I just wonder when God asked for our help. If we believe that is He is the true and living God, we would also realize He does not need our assistance with righting the wrongs. So my suggestion? Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there. He will work it out.
