Our Lord tells us in Matthew 11:28-30 that His way is not hard, in fact it is easy. And His way also has great promises, mainly that if we accept His way, we will have an eternal heavenly rest. Then why in the world would anyone not accept His way!? Well, it requires obedience, that is, we have to do what He says. Many don’t like to be told what to do. But we’re told what to do all our lives! As children, our parents tell us what to do. As students, our teachers tell us what to do. At work, our bosses tell us what to do. As bosses, our customers tell us what to do! But when Jesus tells us what to do, He assures us that what we have to do is not hard. He has made it that way so that it will be easy to succeed. And in all those earthly things to do, the prize for success can never measure up to what Jesus is offering: heaven! We’re only told a little about what heaven will be like. But even what we’re told is amazing! I don’t think we can really understand the beauty of heaven as long as we are mortal. Only our eternal soul can really appreciate all that heaven has to offer. Don’t miss it! Take His yoke upon you; its easy and light.
