TRADE THE YOKE

TRADE THE YOKE

 Matthew 11:30

 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
--------------------------------------------
This is the hour. You have moved a long journey. You have tried to make the thing happen by your own. But you forgot the formula. You forgot the simple thing.

When the captain sails out to the sea and remembers he forgot the steer at the beach, does he continue to sail? No.! But how would he have sailed without the steer. He only took the light ones thinking he would use the other bigger ones at the deeper sea.. only to forget them at the beach. He will obviously turn back to get the strongest. 

There is a point of life where you moved and have to stop to trade the yoke. 
Many of us try so hard to push by ourselves and forget about the strongest steer. We forget the simple formula. If 1 + 1 =2, however much you tried to bring the strongest machines to change that fact to 11 , the fact will remain in it's simplicity. You may want the answer using the might machine, but mere use of fingers will give you the answer you need. 

There is a simple formula given to us here within scripture. It is the idea of trade. It calls somebody here to take his or her yoke, and give it to Christ; then take Christ's yoke upon himself. For the yoke of Christ is easy.

The trade for a lighter yoke is a profitable one since the lighter yoke has better returns on investment. Christ calls you to seek His personality and embrace His being. The world we live in has resources that are simply determined by the spiritual. Focusing on the physical to gain the resources won't make cream out of the milk. You need to turn around and go back to the beach to pick up the strongest and yet simple steer. Pick up the heart to serve God, it is the simple yoke in Christ. Pick up the heart to serve others, it is the simple yoke in Christ. Pick the heart to give what you have to other,...give your knowledge, your love, your time, your money ...it is a simple yoke. See that you seek the face of Jehovah. Such a trade is all profitable. You cannot fail when you trade the yoke you have carried for a while with something lighter.
If you want your ship to run faster and further, trade the yoke.

                       GOD BLESS YOU

TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS   Proverbs 19:17  He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then .... We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity. This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewa...

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

RADICAL SOUL

RADICAL SOUL Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. --------------------------------------------    In our world today, it is easier to have your light set under the table than to have it be on top of the table. It is easier to move in a group than to move alone. Standing for the right is harder nowadays than it was those days. Not because the governments have become more ruthless than they were those days, but because powerful governments of social influence have arisen than they were those days. The weapons available today are more stronger than what it was those days with the luxuries available...the developments. The 'social governments' have set standards which will not tolerate any fickle person in their space. And being a standing army of a government we represent...one of divine agendas, means we need to be rooted in one way. We need the spirit of typicality.  Of course...
