”Put it in God’s hands.” 🙇🏻♂️
There’s a weight that only God can carry. When you try to carry it, you will only wear yourself out. Take everything to God. Nothing is too big and nothing is too small to Him.
Whatever it is that you’re carrying or a fight that you’re facing right now, give it to God. Let Him fight for you – you rest.
It’s not His will that you should be crushed down with weights and burdens of life. Let Him in– let Him carry the weights.
Jesus said, “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 souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
The ‘yoke’ that Jesus is offering doesn’t add weight to our shoulders; it removes it.
The rest we gain from following his way begins with taking his yoke on us– his way of life. He promises us that his yoke is different;
it is easy, it is light, it is gentle and it is freeing.
“True rest” comes when we fully surrender to Him — ☁️🤍
