Yoked

Jesus calls each one of us to him and asks us to put on his yoke. Jesus is the farmer who has carved a yoke just for you at this stage in your life. He knows where your hurts and traumas are and carves around those areas. He knows where you are strong and lets the yoke rest there. The yoke is made of oak and hickory. It’s sanded smooth and oiled. It rests comfortably on you. It’s a double yoke. Jesus is on one side and you on the other. He helps you pull all your burdens so you may find rest for your soul.
