The Gift of His Gentleness

City Awakening Church

Matthew 11:28-30
Louis Tamburro
There’s rest for your burdens in life in the gentle heart of Christ. His heart is just as gentle and humble today as it was in the past. Whatever your burdens, worries, doubts, insecurities, failures, and sins are, they’re never bigger than the heart of Christ. So come to him daily. Come to him, pray to him, study him, reflect on him and his teachings saying “Lord I need you, I can’t live life without you. I’ve tried, but life’s far heavier without you, and far greater with you. I give you my yoke today, and yoke my life to you.”
City Awakening, whatever is yoking you, choking you, burdening your soul today, it’s because you’re yoked to something else instead of Jesus. Lay that yoke down, yoke yourself to Christ, and rest your soul in him. He’s the only one who can lighten the yoke you’re carrying, and won’t ever drive you into the ground. Why? Because he’s gentle and lowly in heart.
