Many are burdened by life and work. Religion often is no help, adding rules and empty rituals on top of the load people are already carrying. Devoid of true relationship and meaningful connection to God, people are like sheep without a shepherd, weary and helpless.
Someone once said, “If it’s not going well, you might be carrying things wrong.” The load we carry often defines us. Our responsibilities, duties, and obligations, along with the worries, concerns, and fears that accompany them, can all lead to exhaustion and unrest. The impact is both physical and spiritual.
What about you? Are you weary and heavy-laden? What are the burdens you are carrying? Jesus wants to give you rest.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your soul. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
―Matthew 11:28-30
Come to Jesus, and He will give you rest. Take up His yoke and learn from Him, and you will find rest for your soul. The Bible encourages us to cast our cares on Him because He cares for us. Unload the burden you are carrying and give it to Jesus. He can handle it!
