Mat 11:30 "For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Wow! I do not know about you, but some days when I run, my legs feel like heavy weights. I feel as though I can barely lift each leg, and my daily run feels like a burden. My body seems weighted down and restricted. Those are days that my legs may need rest. I have to give into my body and allow it to rest. Then, I will have relief. Once I have relief, my legs feel great , and I wonder why I did not rest them sooner.

Many times we feel weighted down by our life circumstances. We feel bound up, and we think there is no relief. These circumstances may include finances, relationships, or work. By surrendering our circumstances to Jesus, He frees us from the burden. He takes the burden for us. Having faith in Him seems like a big step, but once we give into Him, we feel rested and relief. Have you given your burdens over to Jesus so that you can take up His easy yoke?
