Matthew 11:28 - 30 (NKJV)
"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
Jesus Promises to give us rest, He promises to teach us the truth, and He promises that following Him is not difficult
1 John 5:2 - 5 (NKJV)
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world - our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
John confirms that walking in the love of Jesus, obediently following His directions is not difficult and gives us this wonderful promise that we by the exercise of our faith - our belief that Jesus is the Son of God - overcome the world and all of its evil
Abba, Father You gave us Jesus and a life filled with promise - for us that believe in Him there is life filled with victory - life abundant and life forever in Your presence; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
