The burdens in your life.

Matthew 11:28-29 (NLT)
28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

There were those who complained of the burdens of the ceremonial laws, intolerable yokes of labor made much more so by the religious leaders who pushed hard rules upon the people. There was also the great weight of sin upon the people that caused regrets and shame. Jesus invited everyone to come and find rest in Him for his yoke was easy and the burden was light. Willing to be saved by Jesus, in His way, by His terms, we find comfort from the Physician who cares for us and our Advocate that speaks on our behalf.

 

 

 

The human mind is a wonderfully complex organ. Our brains can actually process a group of words, even if they are spelled totally incorrectly. For example, see if you can read the following:

The hmuan mnid is a wndoreullfy cpoemlx oargn. You see? It deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod aearpr, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is that the frist and lsat ltteer are in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the human mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig isn't it?

Oftentimes our lives, and the world around us, don't seem to make sense. There are even times when everything seems to be a total mess. But when we take a step back and remember that God is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last we can rest assured that one day it will all become perfectly clear.

 

Some days our life seems difficult and confusing, but Jesus is always calling out that we can find rest in Him. The Bible even tells us God is not the author of confusion, but of peace. Share your burdens with The Lord for He wants to be peace into your life and lighten your burdens.
