Sometimes life feels unbearably heavy. Heavy, like someone sitting over your chest. Heavy enough to break.
My shepherd takes my hand, and he says to me:
"Come to me, you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your soul. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
1 Corinthians 10:13New International Version (NIV)
ReplyDelete13 No temptation[a] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted[b] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,[c] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
