Under pressure

From my book More Short Prayers for Public Worship, words for when you’re feeling under pressure, the demands of life proving too much for us.  

Almighty God,
we’re not as strong as we like to think,
the burdens of life sometimes being too heavy to bear.
Thank you that when we cannot carry them alone,
you are always there to share the load,
nothing being too hard
or too heavy
for you to shoulder.
Amen.
