Passage: Matthew 11:28-30*

28. [Jesus says] "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29. "Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls.

30. "For My yoke is easy, and My load is light."

Questions

1. How heavy are your weights of guilt and concern today?

 

2. What does Jesus offer you in place of heavy burdens?

 

Practical help

A few moments of pornography can leave you filled with enough guilt to distort what is truly good around you. In your despair, do you see flowers? Do you hear beautiful music? Do you enjoy sunsets and peaceful parks? Or are you distracted by nudes and smut? You cannot separate your outer life from inner attitudes and feelings. If porn is chewing you up on the inside, your life in relation to other people will be a fraud or a mess.

Hear Jesus’ words for you today. He offers to remove your burden and replace them with what initially appears to be another burden — His yoke. But it is in working and walking with Jesus that you will find true rest for your soul. By faith turn to Him now. Click here to learn how to start.
