Are You Carrying Burdens Not Meant for You? | Greg Laurie

Are you carrying heavy burdens, anxiety, or worry that you were never meant to hold? In this powerful and life-changing message, Pastor Greg Laurie dives into Luke 18 to share a vital truth: Don’t carry what God can handle. Through the Parables of the Persistent Widow and the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, Pastor Greg breaks down the keys to effective, persistent prayer and reveals how God responds to a humble heart. Prayer isn’t about informing God of things He doesn’t know—it’s about inviting Him into situations you cannot handle alone. Learn how to forcefully cast your cares on Him, understand God's three answers to prayer (Yes, No, and Wait), and discover the secret weapon every Christian has against anxiety.
