MATTHEW 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Christians frequently experience difficulties in their journey with the Lord, but this shouldn't be the case. Have you once thought, "Being a Christian is so difficult!"?
I have.
I once thought that because becoming a Christian was so challenging, I had no desire to share the gospel with others. For common people, following Jesus simply appeared too difficult.
I was so mistaken and mislead!
Do remember that the gospel, or "good news," is the message of Jesus Christ.
If you are struggling, it isn't because of what the Lord expects of you. Your ignorance, pride, or unbelief are the source of the issue, which the Lord will assist you in overcoming.
Leading a Christian life shouldn't just depend on our willpower, it should also be based on our belief in our Lord Jesus Christ.
The burden is carried by him.
We lack the skills and ability to save ourselves on our own. We therefore require a savior.
PHILIPPIANS 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
We must alter in order to perform and behave better. Yet Jesus must be the center of our attention, not ourselves. We must pray Him to change us and trust Him to do so.
Keep in mind that Jesus wants to help us, not blame us. Christ demonstrated his love for us by giving his life in our place.
SAY THIS: Because the Lord is my Helper, living for Jesus is light and simple.
