HIS WAY IS EASIER

 
 
Matthew 11:29


"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." ESV


In contrast to the religiosity of the Scribes and Pharisees, the way of the spiritual life Jesus lived and taught us is much less cumbersome and bound by traditions. His way is mild and gentle. Jesus showed us by His life that He was not stern, overbearing, or oppressive. It is in freedom that we walk as He did, not in obligation and oppression.


Heavenly Father, how thankful we are that Jesus walked this earth and showed us how to live. We praise You for the work at the cross that freed us from sin and the law. Help us to live in the freedom of Jesus Christ, without obligation, but with open hearts. In Jesus' name, Amen.
