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. Matthew 11:29

Sometimes the weight of the world rests on our shoulders and we need to be reminded Jesus will carry the load. When there are burdens to bear, He helps us find rest for the soul. He humbles hearts and nourishes HOPE, when we faithfully allow ourselves to be led by calm.

Christ knows the heart of human weakness. He helps us recognize He's here. He draws us closer to the Father and provides strength to handle our days. When we faithfully believe, He nurtures a relationship of trust.

Rest will come when we allow Jesus to dwell in our hearts. If we share our burdens with Him, He will balance the load. He will show how to deal with obstacles in our lives and remind us why we will NEVER have to handle them alone.

Dear God, Thank you for Jesus. We will seek Him with all of our hearts and find rest in the strength of Your amazing grace. As we surrender the burdens in our lives, help us remember we are not alone. Teach us to trust in You, so we will gratefully remember who handles each and every day of our lives. Amen
