Rest for Soul: Matthew 11:29

#gardenfaith, Gods will, Guide our steps Lord, Jesus' love, peace of Christ 1 Minute

Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Matthew 11:29 (NIV)

A yoke is a device used to harness animals to attach them to a plow or cart. Jesus asks us to take His yoke and let him control and direct our life; learn from Him. As an instructor, He is gentle and humble. He teaches with fairness and patience. For; Jesus is humble in heart. His priority is always God’s will, not his own. Like Him, we need to follow God’s will and let go of our pride.

Jesus’s yoke is lined with love and brings peace and joy; rest for our souls.

⁂

Are you tired of trying to find your way and failing? If we accept God’s guidance and let go of pride, we find rest for our souls.

Prayer; Lord Jesus, thank You for Your guidance and salvation. Help us to realize what is important in life. Teach us to be humble; let go of pride and walk with You. Like the clematis flower is open and rests against the post, let us be open to God’s will and find rest for our souls. Amen

  1. Let us be open to God’s will and find rest for our souls – that really spoke to me Jeanne. We can at times try to fight it but ultimately the peace and contentment we experience when walking in his will is just unmatched.
