Do not be afraid, for I am with you.
—Isaiah 43:5
The Legend of Bagger Vance is a movie about Rannulph Junah, favorite son and famous golfer of Savannah, Georgia.
In a highly publicized tournament, Junah, traumatized by war memories, is falling apart. His volunteer caddy, Bagger Vance, says, “Ain’t a soul in this entire earth ain’t got a burden to carry that he can’t understand. You ain’t alone in that, but you have been carrying this one long enough. It’s time to lay it down.”
Are past memories haunting you or present problems paralyzing you? You’ve been carrying this burden long enough . . . it’s time to lay it down.
You see, you are not alone: “When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you” (Is 43:2 NLT).
