Our bodies literally store and release emotions (good and bad) and affect our health either positively or negatively. Joy releases endorphins and negative emotions carry poisons. We need to be careful where our focus is or we may be carrying unwanted burdens as you have already stated above. "Cast your burden upon the Lord and He will sustain you." Psalm 55:22a Learning to let go and rest within the Lord's presence is something we all need. Thank you again, Martha.Galer Dobbsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-63149341951935190912011-10-18T07:52:44.807-07:002011-10-18T07:52:44.807-07:00Thanks, all, for stopping by!

Love your term "burden shredding"!<br />@Ann - So glad you found the post helpful!<br />@Corinne - Yes, I believe stress often makes us physically ill as this story bears witness to. Thank goodness we have a loving God to help us shoulder the burdens! :)<br /><br />Blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-54843423836023045982011-10-18T06:24:32.006-07:002011-10-18T06:24:32.006-07:00Martha - It's amazing how much our physical bo...Martha - It's amazing how much our physical bodies reflect our minds and hearts at times....Letting go is the only way...Corinne Rodrigueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127426375705808776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-742374436076022512011-10-18T05:35:56.244-07:002011-10-18T05:35:56.244-07:00Thanks for this, Martha.

When we are children, our parents can help carry those burdens. But when we are adults, we have to look to another parent, God the Father. He has promised to always be there. And in my life, I know He has. Thanks Martha. 'Burden shedding' is by God's design. He can carry what you and I cannot.<br /><br />You're up mighty late...Hank Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15768713288162953642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-17097262081314604912011-10-18T02:57:43.465-07:002011-10-18T02:57:43.465-07:00Oh, Janu, I feel so badly for her!
