Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you. Let Me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”
Good Morning Jesus,
How I thank You for calling me to You this morning. I am very tired already and there seems to be so much bad stuff going on in people’s lives around me. I do feel burdened. I care so much for my loved ones and friends, I want to be faithful to them as You are faithful to me.
So I come this morning to receive Your rest. Please teach me Your ways, I want my heart to be as Yours, I want to be gentle in my actions, I want to glorify You.
You have also reminded me that my burdens are Yours also. I know I don’t always give them to You, as You have asked me. I guess I think I can handle it all on my own, when You know I can’t.
You have asked me to serve others WITH You, not FOR You. I forget that often Jesus. Thank You for reminding me that we’re in this together and Your yoke is easy to bear when I give my burdens to You!
You, my Love, have lessened the load already this morning. My energy is back and I am ready to face the day WITH You. How wonderful You are!
Amen
