Matthew 11:28-29
“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.Are you coming or are you going? Are you coming to God or are you going your own way and trying to figure it out on your own? God said for you to come to Him. Not only did He say come to Him. He said when you come to Him ... He will give you rest. One definition for rest is to "recover strength". We have to learn that in our pursuit of God is a recovery process. The process of recovering strength.
Understand when you are weary and burdened, you are in a place of no strength. God said the process for that is to take His yoke upon us and to learn of Him. A yoke is a wooden crosspiece that is fastened over the necks of two animals. Take a moment to think about it. Jesus carried the cross. Think about how the cross had to be carried (over his shoulder ... right at his neck) ... Again a yoke is a wooden "cross"piece that is fastened to the neck of two ... Attach yourself to the cross. Take upon you the yoke of the cross. Learn of God and find rest for your mind, your will, and your emotions.
