Read Matthew 11:28-30

 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Lord,

There are moments when I would really love for someone to lighten my load! I often find myself frustrated and overwhelmed by the demands I either place on myself or the demands I feel like others are placing on me.  I hurry and scurry about, frazzled and unhappy.  Today, would You remind me that this is not the life You have planned for me.  You never intended for me to strap on all the worries of the world and trudge along under their weight alone.  I am tired from carrying the load. Guide me to invite You into it…to allow You to do the heavy lifting and to let me walk beside You and learn from You.  Teach me to be at rest in You, because I am confident of Your provision and Your desire to help me.  Amen
