11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
This has always been one of the more intriguing of verses to me. If I take it piece by piece, I can say that I did labor and I am heavy laden. I am weary and I am in need of rest. Perhaps what I am going through is rest? Being without is not an easy thing. Not being sure when and where your actual needs will come from tomorrow. When I feel better it is when I am thankful that God has provided for me today. That is when these verses come to mind:
6:25 So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?
6:26 See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?
6:27 And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself a cubit taller?
6:28 And why are you troubled about clothing? See the flowers of the field, how they come up; they do no work, they make no thread:
6:29 But I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these.
6:30 But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?
6:31 Then do not be full of care, saying, What are we to have for food or drink? or, With what may we be clothed?
6:32 Because the Gentiles go in search of all these things: for your Father in heaven has knowledge that you have need of all these things:
6:33 But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.
6:34 Then have no care for tomorrow: tomorrow will take care of itself. Take the trouble of the day as it comes.
Lord help me to suceed in my life. Help me to find the things here that will allow me to overcome these trial. Father help me overcome the evil and the abandonment of others. Help me to not neglect those who still love, pray and support me. Thank you for and bless my family and true friends. God bless everyone, in the name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!
