COME TO ME, ALL YOU WHO LABOUR AND ARE OVERBURDENED, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST
Do you feel sometimes that we are overwhelmed with emotions? It could be pressure to excel in our studies, the need to perform well at work, or assuring our love ones that we are there for them. There is also the fear of being hurt in a relationship, the bitterness of being bypassed for a promotion or a misunderstanding with our friends. When we are unable to let go of our emotions, it will somehow affect out state of mind and as a result we will become tired.Have we ever surrendered the situation that we are facing to the Lord and trust that He will show us His will? Indeed there were many occasions when I was uncertain on the issues that I faced like my job and my family, and I just turned to the Lord. He does give you rest and a peace of mind. In our daily lives, sometimes we are just so focused on doing what we think that we know best, but it may not be the right solution. It is until we are at crossroads that we have to let go and surrender to the Lord. It is only then that the Lord can work miracles. Let us learn to trust in God. When faced with trials and tribulations, let us learn to be still and just pray with open hands and listen to God. Be still and know that God is right beside you. Step up to Him in faith and be assured His yoke is indeed light. |
