Jesus told us that when we feel heavy-laden, we should just come to Him, give Him everything that’s weighing us down, and take up His light and easy yoke.  

“Just come to Me.”  

Come as you are.  No judgment. Don’t try to fix yourself up before you see Him.  Just come on.  

That can be a hard thing to remember at times when we’re really feeling the burden of our human struggles.  But we don’t have to try to solve our problems before we get to Jesus.  Jesus will take care of everything - if we just come to Him.  

What the Lord wants us to do when we’re feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, confused, or wounded, is to take our burdens directly to Jesus. 

In this episode of 5-Minute Mentoring, I’ll tell you how I came to understand that I didn’t have to unburden myself and make myself presentable before I went to the Lord.   Have a listen and take this message to heart.
