Before you move on
Jesus invites the burdened to come, take his yoke and learn from him. A yoke belongs to work; the rest he offers is connected with the way he leads: gentle and humble in heart. Look back over the week. Which demand on yourself feels harsh and unrelenting? Consider a next step shaped by the character Jesus describes here.
Read the passage again if you want to. Notice which word, action, or question stays with you. You can finish a reading without having finished thinking about it.
