Do You Carry Heavy Burdens

I carried heavy burdens I didn’t know I had They reacted just like toxins And made me feel real sad Was there any value to life here on the Earth? Everything I thought I had was vanity and air Then I found a brand new birth And Jesus took my care Everyone who trusts in Him Has nothing more to fear But joy in blessings to the brim Knowing always He is near So cast your cares on Jesus, every single one And live a life of peace on Earth and you shall see the Son

You have touched on some nice pieces here ! No there is no value to life on earth here ! Who on earth would measure it ! You may work on your imaginary forces though - that's your choice !

Not imaginary at all. Twice I have been crippled and told by the doctors I would never walk again. Twice the Lord healed me of incurable diseases. Now I rejoice just to be able to walk. I know our mind has a problem with that as I am a scientist but now I see. I have also seen the Lord, angels, demons and know it is for real.
