As we studied in class this week, we learn about how we need to be ready to give our burdens to our Savior, and that He will help us to bear them. In the book of Matthew, Chapter 11, verses 28-30, it reads, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 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. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
We know that a yoke can be used to join two animals together to help make the load more bearable and to make it so that one does not have to bear all the burden on their own. I love these scriptures that help to paint the picture that Christ is there for each of us, to help us bear our burdens. What a great blessing to know that He is there for us in our times of need, and all we need to do is go to Him humbly to ask for help.
I hope that each of us can remember to go to our Savior in times of need and ask for His help. I know that He will be there for each of us, helping to make the load light, and helping us bear whatever burdens we may have.
