Rest for Your Soul https://testflight.apple.com/join/KvcM4z5R
Farmers use to place yokes around an oxen’s shoulders, and they would attach a plow to it so that the ox can plow the land. In the book of Matt 11:25-30 Jesus said, “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding the truth from those who think themselves so wise and for revealing it to the little children. Yes, Father, for it please you to do it this way”.
My Father has given me authority over everything, no one really knows the Son except the Father and no one really knows the Father except the Son and those whom the Son chooses to reveal Him. Then Jesus said “come to me all who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you because I am humble and gentle, and you will find rest for your soul. For my yoke fits perfectly and the burden I give you is light.
You could be carrying heavy burdens of sin, excessive demands of religious leaders, (Matthew 23:4), (Acts 15:10) oppression and persecution, or weariness in the search for God. Jesus frees people from all these burdens. The rest that Jesus promise is love, healing, and peace with God, not the end of all labor. A relationship God changes meaningless wearisome toil into spiritual productivity and purpose.
The “wise – arrogant in their own knowledge, and the” little children” humbly open to receive the truth of God’s word. Are you wise in your own eyes, or do you seek the truth with childlike faith, realizing that only God holds all the answers? Come to Jesus with your burdens. Turn them over to him he will give you rest.
