Matthew 11:30
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could all be Matthew 11:30 friends? I think if we followed the commandments we would be just that!
Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way, you will fulfill the law of Christ. (Gal 6:2)
This is my command love one another. (John 15:17)
And let us consider how we may, spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up on meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encourage one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching. (Heb 10:24-25)
If we spent more time loving each other instead of gossiping
If we spent more time walking next to each other instead of tearing each other down.
If we turned to encourage instead of turning to criticize.
As Christians, we are to reflect Jesus. Jesus described himself as a Matthew 11:30 friend. Isn’t it about time we try our hand at it too?
You want the pain to cease
Extend the yoke of peace
We may not agree
But believe you me
What a lighter burden it will be!
