Scripture:
Matthews 11: 28-30 "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, 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."
Observation:
When I get tired and weary I find myself contemplating how the world around is so screwed up. I don't stop to think that it might be me. On top of that I don't do anything new to change to improve the situation. Maybe the best thing I do is to ignore it. Sometime that can be the answer but not always. It seems like the same things that drain me down and tired me out seems to appear at times.
My life is an eventful, there are so much that it is sometime difficult to comprehend. I wonder if anything that happen is what is it.. I do need a reality check sometimes. Lately, I been going through insomnia, daily the most I can sleep is few hours before work.. With the weekends doesn't help much at all either. My point? When I am awake I am exhausted and anxiety overwhelms me.
At times, I want to take control of all the circumstance, when they are not to my expectation that is when I get overwhelmed, exhausted and fill with anxiety.
Application:
My ignorance has cause me to be tired and exhausted with my life. When I am tired and weary like the scripture said I need to lean on to God. He will shield me with peace and much needed rest. But why is it so difficult for me to do that? It sounds so easy yet the most difficult thing to live up to. Anything and everything that goes on is the will of God, to be faithful servant, I shall continue for intimate relationship with him. In so, I can reach to the humbling God that he is and he may give me peace in my soul.
Prayer:
Father Thank you for the Cross. The heavy cross you carried for sake of me. Father thank you for loving me and sacrificing your precious Son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for my sins. Father you are amazing and the love you have for me is not deserved, but thank you for loving me unconditionally. Father, I want to learn to build relationship which you plan for me. Father, thank you for working to mold my heart, thank you for giving me the this feelings to be hurt and learn to forgive. Father of Heaven, I am exhausted at times, my troubles are so big to me but so small to you, I lay them to you, that you will bring peace and find me the comfort I need to bring peace within my soul. Thank you amazing for the washing the heavy burden of my sins and wretchedness from me. Help me and guide me to be faithful servant Lord, let my work bring joy in your kingdom. Father I can't wait to enter your kingdom, and praise you. I thank you for the abundant blessing you provide and for my family. Thank you for your grace during out Auction, thank you for the generous heart of your servants. Father thank you and I love you! In your name I pray Amen!
