“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.
