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. (Matthew 11:29 NIV)
What is a yoke? It's a farm piece for ox to work side by side. So taking God's yoke means to walk with Him and let him help carry the burden and heavy load.
His yoke is easy and his burden is light. When we trust him we will receive rest. What kinds of things do we carry? Anger, getting along with brothers and sisters , obeying parents, talking poorly to others ..... These are all things that God can help us with. We can't do it right all the time but He can. We need to allow him to come and make that change in us.
