Are You Weary And Burdened?
« on: February 04, 2006, 12:55 PM »

Are you weary and burdened?  Sick and tired of all the difficult situations in your life? Do you often feel that your life has no meaning? Perhaps a thought of committing suicide has crossed your mind.

You no longer need to feel like that. Jesus wants to give you rest.
Jesus says, “"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, 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.”

Yes, Jesus can give you rest like no one else can. He tells you to take His yoke upon you and learn from Him. He says He is gentle and humble at heart and will give rest to your weary and burdened soul.
When you come to Jesus, He won’t place a heavy yoke upon you. Instead He wants you to carry His yoke. Are you willing to exchange yokes and burdens with Jesus? He has an easy yoke and a light burden to give instead of the difficult yoke and heavy burden that you are carrying now.

In Psalms 38, David says, “My guilt has overwhelmed me like a burden too heavy to bear.” (Psalms 38:4)
Are you overwhelmed by guilt regarding some wrong that you have done? Give that guilt to Jesus in prayer and He will give you rest.

In Psalms 68:19 we see the Psalmist praising God for carrying his burdens, “Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.”
Yes, He is a God who daily bears our burdens.

What are the burdens that you are carrying alone this day? Give those burdens away to Jesus in prayer. Give away the difficult yoke that you are carrying this day to Jesus. He will give you rest.

Pray this prayer to rid yourself of the difficult yoke and heavy burden that you are carrying and receive rest from Jesus.

Dear Father In Heaven,
I am weary and burdened this day. I am carrying a yoke that is difficult and a burden too heavy for myself to carry. Kindly take this heavy burden and difficult yoke that I am carrying upon you dear Lord and give me rest. I thank you that you hear my prayer.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
