The Weight I Can Lay Down

Scripture  

Matthew 11:28–30 (NRSV)  

“Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens,  

and I will give you rest.  

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.  

For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”



Refrain  

I lay down what no longer serves the journey.



Quotes 

St. Teresa of Ávila  

Let nothing disturb you.  

Let nothing frighten you.  

All things are passing; God never changes.  

Patience obtains all things.  

Whoever has God lacks nothing.  

God alone suffices.


Jean Vanier

“To live with Jesus is to live with the poor,  

to live with the broken, and to live with myself—  

as I really am.  

That is where healing begins,  

and it always begins with letting go of what is false.”
