Entrust Your Burdens to Jesus | Luke 5:1-11 Life is full of moments when we feel like Peter—exhausted, discouraged, and questioning why our efforts seem fruitless: “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing!” (Luke 5:5). We echo Isaiah’s lament: “Woe is me! I am a man of unclean lips!” (Isaiah 6:5). In these moments of doubt and despair, the temptation is to give up.

Entrust Your Burdens to Jesus | Luke 5:1-11

Life is full of moments when we feel like Peter—exhausted, discouraged, and questioning why our efforts seem fruitless: “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing!” (Luke 5:5). We echo Isaiah’s lament: “Woe is me! I am a man of unclean lips!” (Isaiah 6:5).

In these moments of doubt and despair, the temptation is to give up. We long to trust Jesus at His Word, to try again, but the results often seem worse than before. Yet, when all else fails, we cling to what never changes—the Word of the Lord and His gracious promises.

Like Peter and Isaiah, we may hesitate to listen, but when we do, we find that Christ never fails us. He forgives, sanctifies, and restores. No matter how overwhelming our burdens, we hear His unshakable promise in the Divine Service:

🔹 "I forgive you all your sins."
🔹 "You are my redeemed and holy children."

Join us as we rest in the certainty of Christ’s Word, where His grace is sufficient, His promises unbreakable, and His love unending.
