God Shares Our Burdens
9:04 PM
"Jesus said to the crowds: “Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for your selves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.”" - Matthew 11:28-30
In today's Gospel, I have been reminded that God puts to us His yoke as we face our burdens. He puts around His yoke to us, not to give us more burden, but instead to share with Him our trials and worries. Through His yoke, we will surely feel lighter weight from what we carry on our shoulders.
Right now, I struggle a lot in my task at work. I am developing an ActiveReports 9 rdlx report, and I suddenly came across to somewhat a limitation to the technology. I'm not yet sure but it totally slows me down in finishing off my task. This is a burden for me especially that the year-end is coming into closure.
But everytime I feel the burden, I suddenly think of praying. So I pray whenever I feel weary, and eventually, blurry things become clear, and little by little I can fix the problems. The challenge is still there, but through prayer (which I believe is God's yoke) my worries start to fade.
I pray that you realize that God's yoke will be put unto you to ease your burdens. Continue praying to Him and you will surely feel that He shares your burdens with Him.
