Yokes

Proverbs 7:1-27
Psalm 18:1-20
1 John 5:13-21
Matthew 11:25-30


Matthew 11:25-30


I used to like water duty when we were at Girl Scout camp. Some days I would carry 20 buckets of water. I can remember thinking that a yoke might make life easier. Most girls hated the water patrol, perhaps I liked it because I got to go further afield than usual- one had to walk to the farmyard. Of course farmyards were often smelly places and one had to watch one's step. Yes I did sleep well, even on the hard ground.
With Jesus at one's side even the most unpleasant tasks can seem not too bad.
