Here's the scenario: you're trying to survive your classes this year, but every subject is making you bang your head against the wall. But your brother is home from college for spring break this week, and he offers to help you, every night, with all of it!
So you say, "Sure, there's this algebra I don't understand, and I need help on this science project, but don't worry about my English paper. It's driving me nuts, but I'll do it myself." Huh? He said he'd help with all of it! Why not let him?
Have you ever done this to God? I Peter 5:7 says to "Cast all your anxiety on him." Not some. All. We shouldn't be telling God, "Yeah, you can help me be nice to my little sister, and I really need courage to witness to my friend, but I can handle stress about the track meet myself."
God loves us, and he wants to be there for us in everything we do. We need to be willing to trust him with all aspects of our lives. He will work it out, according to his will. And that's the best kind of help.
