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.
Jesus does not want us to be burdened with all the horrible things in this world but would rather we carry the load He wishes us to carry.
If you were given the choice to either carry the shopping bag full of sugar, juice and other heavy things or the shopping bag full of crisps and other light things, which would you carry?
They both may have things we like in them, but the sugar bag is going to be very heavy compared to the crisps bag!
Jesus wants us to carry the good things, but also to make our way easier. We do need to listen to Him to find that way!
