How do I know when i’m out of God’s will? How do I know if all the things i’m doing are what God expects me to do or if i’ve just put those expectations on myself? Most of us are doing too much right now. Our schedules are too busy. We have so many irons in the fire that the fire is about to be put out. We’re smothering it.
The answer is simple: If i’m always tired. It is not God’s will in life to always be tired. God never intended for us to go around with that heavy a load all the time.
In Matthew 11:28-30, Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest” (TEV).
What's got you burdened? Most of us carry a yoke of burden that we’ve put on ourselves because of unresolved guilt and unrealistic expectations. We’re trying to prove that we matter.
You matter to God period! You don’t have to do anything to matter to God.
So....What do you need to change? Change may not be easy to do but it is necessary. It may require some sacrifice. You may be misunderstood. But...you will have a sense of relief when you make the change.
What's got you burdened? How should you deal with it?

Guilty! I've done this so many times in my life I've lost count. But I haven't stopped working on it. I like what Joyce Meyer says -"I may not be where I want to be, but I'm not where I used to be."
Thanks for reminding me that "[His] yoke is easy and [His] burden is light."
