I've been reading the Word for as much as I can in a day. I choose to eat them like snacks and meals. Meditating and digesting throughout the day. I take them as loving, caring, and lightly as it is. When Jesus teaches in the New Testament, it gives people peace and not fear. The only times Jesus was a bit harsher was when He pointed out the critical spirits of the Pharisees and when He saw how people disrespected the temple of the Lord.
In all His teachings, He was compassionate and loving. So when I feel that I am weary and burdened, that means I am not taking His yoke which is easy and light. Jesus is very loving.
““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.””
Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
