    Finding peace and rest

    Many times we are often carried away by our own thoughts, things and situations around us. We can be so stucked up by our own mind and careless about others. This reminds me why some people are ignorant of things and as if they are only living for themselves. As for now, I think that I am one of those some people. Things laid in front of me seem so huge and they are drowning me under the ground. Well, they are all challenges that everyone has to face. So what is that that is so bothersome?

     

    Life. I am really bothered by my own life. It seems that it is hard to live a life. There is too many things to care about, too much expectations, too many presentations, too many performances. You do not know what will happen if you make this choice, what will happen if you did not make that other choice. Life is full of uncertainties.

     

    Jesus says in Matthew 11, 28"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

     

    Jesus says living for him is easy and his burden is light. Jesus cannot be lying, so what he said must be true. I guess the reason I am feeling burdened with life is because I am not living a life with Jesus and not fully depending on Him. Or else it would be easy. What do I do with all the worries and anxieties? 1 Peter 5: 7 - Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

     

    I believe that Jesus’ love never fails. He hears our prayers, He hears our cries. He is always mindful of us who diligently seek Him. He has the best plan ever for our lives. So, Matthew 6:33 - But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
