“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, 
and I will give you rest.  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. for My yoke is easy 
and My burden is light.” 
 
(Matthew 11:28-30) 
 
Yoked With Me
 
Take Me unto yourself. 
For unless you invite Me in, 
I cannot help but leave you 
to your own desires for yourself. 
I have asked you to take  
your cross and follow Me. 
It’s not to die as I have done, 
but rather that you die to those 
self-ways which keep you 
from receiving Me. 
Put away your own thoughts 
and open your whole self to Me. 
I will take the burdens you have 
insisted on carrying on your own, 
lightening your load. 
Connect to Me and feel 
the heaviness leave, 
for I have taken it all.
