The daily struggles that life and sin often times becomes to much what do you do? Do throw your hands up and give up? Do you feel like you are barely keeping your head above water? How is your prayer life? Tired of feeling like enemy has his boot on your neck? Don't know what to do? You go to church every Sunday and don't miss mid-week service, but you still feeling like your walking in defeat and most days your barely making it. You cried out to God but felt like maybe he was too busy for you? The reality is that he standing right there with arms wide open ready to take away your burdens, but your afraid to give them to him. Really do you think there is anything that is to hard for God to handle? Jesus will give you rest.
If we but cried out to him and surrender your burdens to the Christ Jesus our savior when you do not turn to Jesus it's our way of saying that we think Jesus's yoke is to hard and His burden is to heavy. That is a lie from the pit of hell, there is no temptation know to man that Jesus has not faced and understands.
We need to cast our care on the Lord and learn of Him. So many people are striving and struggling to get God to love them when He already loves them and accepts them. Living a successful Christian life is not done by our own strength or willpower. It is the result of depending on the Lord. Only He can do it.
Quit trusting in yourself and will and plans and abilities and efforts, and trust in Jesus instead. Turn things over to Him. Let Him be Lord in your life.
28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light” (Matthew 11:28-30).
