inner peace and better hope.
This is included, I would say, in what Jesus means by the yoke being easy and the burden being light.
worldly comfort is entirely irrelevant for the faith.
Paul says he learned how to be content in all things > Philippians 4:11-13. And Paul says he became able to take "pleasure" in his troubles. But I think he means the troubles which really were "for Christ's sake" > and not only what his own ego got him into!! > 2 Corinthians 12:7-15.
sometimes it doesn't feel that it is easy friend
It has to do with if things have you under their power. Paul says, "I will not be brought under the power of any," in 1 Corinthians 6:12. God's almighty grace can have us staying in peace, inside ourselves, in spite of troubles around us. But we grow in this, in Jesus.
So, if I am not in rest for my soul, this is a warning sign of how I need to submit to God for His correction and tuning and adjusting so I am with Him in His love and doing His will.
Now, by the way, I might be doing something He wants, but I might not spiritually be the way I need to be. So, I need to get more and more into submitting only to how God rules us in His own peace >
"And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful." (Colossians 3:15)
This is for all > "in one body" ! ! ! But this comes with growing and correction. We are not spiritual enough to get our own selves to live like this > so, we trust You, O LORD our Heavenly Father to prove Yourself in us, by doing this in us.
