Life is common to all mankind and as such man has to suffer the things that life presents. Encumbrances are unavoidable. Jesus told Martha that she was careful and cumbered about many things. As much as the above mentioned is true to life, it is paramount that we don’t carry the baggage of our past life with us into the present and hence allow it to determine our future because “ I’M NOT WHAT I USED TO BE”. Jesus has or will change that if you will allow Him.
