S Matthew 11:28-30 ESV
Come to me, all 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.”

Here are a few directions and then a couple of statement/promises made by Jesus.
- We are to Come to Him; Take His Yoke and Learn from Him.
- He will give rest; He is gentle; His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
- Once we act (#1) then we will see His actions (#2). He has already done His, but we are somewhat blinded by life, until we bow before Him.
- To do this one must die to self. One must allow Him to rule/reign in their life. He is key to life!

Coming to Him is not as hard as staying w/ Him. I must come and stay/remain there with Him. Once I stay there with Him I will see His actions and I will be able to learn from Him and take His yoke. I know He cares/LOVES me because of His coming and dying for me. The “ball” is in my court. I will come and take Your yoke and Your rest Oh Lord.
P
Lord please teach me as I come and remain with You today. God I NEED You and I desire for You to fill me with Yourself today. Lord I know You are faithful to complete all that You say. I believe You are in control of this life and that You will use me for Your glory today. I die to self and to sin! Please fill me with Your presence.
Amen.
