Do you know what is the most strenous part of a tug-of-war competition? Yes, it is when both teams are straining with all their might (and some would also add the weight) on both ends of their thick rope and each trying to outwit and outlast the other team.
In real life, when I look back at what I had gone through, the toughest times were when I struggled alone with my challenges and never once laid my burdens at the feet of Jesus. Remember, our Daddy God is a Gentleman and He will never want to impose on us to take our burdens upon Himself; He will only do that when we invite Him in and boy, will He come rushing to our aid. He does not like to touch the tug-of-war rope when we have a firm grip on it - He just backs off. He respects our choices in life - with or without Him.
But when we so decide to leg go of the rope and allow Him to do the pulling on our behalf, He will step in and ensure we are on the winning side. With God on our side, even though we may stand alone, we are the majority and we win! Hallelujah!
