All I know is that the closer I get to God, the deeper I get into the Bible, and the heavier the burden seems on my shoulders.

Tim LaHaye
About This Quote

When a person is desperate for God it is not a burden but a great joy. The closer to God a person gets, the more they realize that He is all that sustains them. As they get closer to Him, they recognize that the burden of the world has been lifted from their shoulders and replaced with a very heavy weight. The closer a person comes to God, the greater their need for Him becomes. The closer a person gets to God, the heavier the burden of life seems to grow upon them.
