The Yoke The Yoke of Christ
When Jesus stated in Matthew 11:30 that “My yoke is easy and my burden light”, he was speaking the truth. For the suffering that comes from following the Lord leads to deeper healing and life and blessing, though it can seem heavy when going through the process of our lives in seeking to being loving disciples. However the crosses we manufacture for ourselves in seeking the gods of riches and power without compassion or love for others, are in fact much heavier and death-dealing even though they promise peace and contentment…which can be easily lost in the twinkling of an eye, even if they are procured for a time.--BrMD
