Good morning,
The word for today is - Yoke !
Let's look at Matthew,11:29-30, Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. The yoke of Jesus is the yoke of repentance and faith followed by a singular commitment to follow him. The good news is that Jesus promises to all that come to him that he will give them rest. Rest from what? Rest from the heavy burden of trying to earn one’s way into heaven. This is talking about works. Rest from the oppressive yoke of self-righteousness. Jesus encourages those who are “heavy laden” to take his yoke upon them and in so doing they will find rest for their souls. It means that no matter how heavy our burdens may be turn them over to Jesus. Do you carry a heavy load? Give it to Jesus, that is the only way to find peace. Jesus doesn't care what you look like, or what car you drive, or how much money you have or what you wear. God looks at the heart of man, this is what He wants, your heart. Ask youself, Who will love me unconditionally? Jesus ! What makes Jesus’ yoke easy and his burden light is that in Jesus’ active obedience ( his perfect fulfillment of the Law of God), he carried the burden that we were meant to carry. Thank you Jesus ! All you need to do is call Him up, it is easy anyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. He will in no way cast you out if you call on him. We have a sound in us that He (Jesus) wants to hear, He(Jesus) knows you troubles of this world. He is greater then the world and He is more then the world. You must believe in Him first. When you acknowledge you don't have the answers, but recognize He does call Him. God always has our best interest in mind, He wants the best for us. Are you willing to take the first step? The first step is to acknowledge Jesus as Lord and savior. There is no other way,Jesus Christ Himself proclaimed that He is the only way to God. Thank you God for your word. Amen !
