Load Bearing Beam - A Word to the Weary 
(Family Leaders)


The Fantastical Feast!



Today's message

Who you are;  a . . .

Load Bearing Beam:

A load-bearing beam is a structural element in a building or structure that supports weight from above and transfers it down to the foundation or other supporting elements. These beams are essential for maintaining the integrity and stability of a structure.

Key Characteristics:

    • Supports vertical loads from floors, roofs, or walls above it.
    • Transfers weight to columns, walls, or the foundation.
    • Cannot be removed or altered without proper structural support or reinforcement.

The role of a family leader is honorable, rewarding, invigorating, and at times exhausting. This role spans many areas: financial, emotional, spiritual, advisory, parental, and even community leadership. It carries immense responsibility and pressure.

But Scripture offers both encouragement and guidance for those navigating this sacred role.

I’m not here to offer a message about removing the load or making it lighter. From the very beginning, God gave us the task of taking care of business:

Genesis 2:15
“The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.”

Your family is your Garden of Eden. You are called to tend it.

We are created in God’s image and to be clear, He works. It’s in His nature. When we work, we reflect His character.

John 5:17
“My Father is always at His work to this very day, and I too am working.”

While I can’t remove the responsibility or the weight that comes with it, I can offer this: you are not alone. We all experience what I call “load fatigue.”  But even in those moments, God calls us to stay the course.

Galatians 6:9
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”

The work you are doing will reap rewards, both now and in eternity.

Make sure your children understand the value of work and the importance of supporting a family.

Proverbs 10:4
Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth.

2 Thessalonians 3:10
The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.

1 Timothy 5:8
Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

If you don’t want your efforts to be in vain, remember this order: 
  • God first, 
  • Family second, 
  • Church third, 
  • Work fourth, 
  • Education fifth.
Psalm 127:1 
Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.

Your house must be anchored in God’s plan, not just your own. He is the foundation.

You are designed to be a load-bearing beam—holding up others. You are called to provide, lift, protect, and guide. Your strength, through God, enables your family to grow and thrive.

By heavenly design, you are equipped to withstand anything that comes your way—because you are teamed with the Creator of all we see.  You have everything you need.

Psalm 23:1 (NIV)
“The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.”

And when the load feels too heavy, remember:

Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

I hope it is the North Shore on Lake Superior.  It is beautiful this time of year.

Song of the Week - 

Hallelujah! Sing a New Song to GOD. Sing HIS praise in the assembly of godly people. Psalm 149:1.

"Dance Like David", 2025, gio. & Swaizy

I am back to a little Hip-Hope.  This quick song has some good lyrics and a simple, but appreciable tune.


Lyrics:

Who you know do it like this?
Hit my lil dance like David did
Yeah, you know my shot don't miss
Prayers, throw 'em up, let it fall like swish

And you know I'm too legit
It don't matter 'bout the height when it's in the wrist
Giants fall when He shifts
So I'm doing my dance like David did

I got a sling up in my hand like I'm David
Pebble to the devil's forehead where I'm aiming
Looking to the Lord, yeah, thank God we made it
Pick me off the floor, huh, rose from the pavement

Slide to the left, baby, slide to the right
You gon' get left if you don't get right
Huh, what a life to live, I got the Lord on my side
Left hook, right jab - they gon' call me Mike Ty

Who you know do it like this?
Hit my lil dance like David did
Yeah, you know my shot don't miss
Prayers, throw 'em up, let it fall like swish

And you know I'm too legit
It don't matter 'bout the height when it's in the wrist
Giants fall when He shifts
So I'm doing my dance like David did

Heels up, Michael Jackson
How I'm stuntin' on the devil with these captions
Issa slow climb up, so I'm fasting
Pull the reel out - lights, camera, action

You a grown man, why are you reactin'?
This a free gift, why do you be taxin'?
See the walls come down when He come around
Every giant in the way be collapsing

David danzaba
Está en la palabra
Tengo que alabarle en las buenas y en las malas
¿A qué hora es la fiesta? Trabajo en la mañana
Y como el tapón en Puerto Rico, esto nunca se acaba

Who you know do it like this?
Hit my lil dance like David did, yeah
Yeah, you know my shot don't miss
Prayers, throw 'em up, let it fall like swish

Who you know do it like this?
Hit my lil dance like David did
Yeah, you know my shot don't miss
Prayers, throw 'em up, let it fall like swish

And you know I'm too legit
It don't matter 'bout the height when it's in the wrist
Giants fall when He shifts
So I'm doing my dance like David did

Doing my dance like David did
Doing my dance like David did
