Matthew 11, verses 28 through 30Ephesians 3, verse 1One of the deeper mysteries in the Gospel of Jesus Christ comes through His invitation for us to be yoked to Him, like an oxen pulling a plow.Don’t we desire liberation from our heavy burdens? Why would we want the added restriction and weight of a yoke on our neck?It’s counterintuitive, but yoking ourselves to Jesus is the most liberating thing we could possibly do. It’s a deepening of our devotion, and expansion of our faith, knowing that He will never weigh us down with a burden we can’t handle. No matter what it is, He is with us - we are working together.Gone are the days when we go it alone.
