Cast Thy Burden!!! 5/4/25
Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
YOKE-from the root of zeugnumi (to join, especially by a “yoke”); a coupling, i.e. (figurative) servitude (a law or obligation); also (literal) the beam of the balance (as connecting the scales) :- pair of balances, yoke. Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
I WOKE UP, (PRAISE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR AGAIN AWAKENING THIS MORNING- PS: I never TIRE OF TYPING THE WONDERFUL FACT of the PRIVILEGE of another day of life!!!!).........................
THIS life is a CONTINUAL life of struggle and war-a never ceasing fight to stand upright a midst the human suffering and too often sameness of daily existance.
TRULY, we ALL “LABOUR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN!!!!' amen!!??
HEAVY LADEN-from (phortos); to load up (properly as a vessel or animal), i.e. (figurative) to overburden with ceremony (or spiritual anxiety) :- lade, be heavy laden. Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
Our WONDERFUL Lord and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, truly understood this-after all, HE HIMSELF also lived a fleshly, human life.
This is exactly WHY Jesus commanded us to COME UNTO HIM/JESUS!!!!!!
Matthew 11:28 (KJV)
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
It is a place of SURRENDER-THE place/moment when one realizes AGAIN their own human frailty and ineptness of FIXIN' their too many problems/IE burdens
Simply the simple fact that WE are vastly unable to BEAR UP under such heavy loads...
Jesus says to you and me today, “Lay your burden on me-I CAN and WILL listen and help.”
Matthew 11:29 (KJV)
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
I CAN'T FIX IT!!!! I, in my humanness and flesh SO want to.
I CAN'T CARRY THE WEIGHT!!!! I AM NOT MEANT TO CARRY IT!!!
Others, the world is NOT mine or YOUR responsibility!!!!
Matthew 11:30 (KJV)
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
BURDEN-diminitive of (phortos); an invoice (as part of freight), i.e. (figurative) a task or service :- burden.
Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
Jesus asks of YOU and me- “Give ME your burden-I CAN help.....”
As I lay down to sleep last night, filled with despair and helplessness, and even this morning arising with “the cares of THIS life” I am forced, by necessity, to:
John 7:37-38 (KJV)
37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
As I complete this word today, I am gonna' AGAIN GET ON MY KNEES and seek Jesus Christ to “quince my thirst” as AGAIN today I AM thirsty.....
Will you also:
Psalm 55:22 (KJV)
22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
May I/as a reminder, the definition of a BURDEN is:
BURDEN-diminitive of (phortos); an invoice (as part of freight), i.e. (figurative) a task or service :- burden.
Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
“CAST THY BURDEN UPON THE LORD!!!!!”
