My Yoke is Easy
Here's a raw entry from this morning's journal. I believe God is in the process of delivering us from wicked agendas that are plaguing our society and our world. The corruption goes deep and spreads wide into our culture, even into the church institution. People have been taught doctrines filled with heavy burdens (like how the Pharisees placed burdens on the people with their rules). These doctrines DO NOT represent Jesus and his heart for His people. His heart is to shepherd His people and lead them in the way everlasting filled with rest, not striving.

And when the summer ends. And the fruit is on the table. And the harvest has been picked. And the workers have all labored. When the summer ends is when I will begin! For then comes the marking of the new day into winter!
For winter is when rest is most obvious to the people. And I will show them that MY rest is beautiful. And MY rest is what their souls needs! I will teach My people how to rest again. For I AM their Sabbath. No more striving. No more trying to please. No more straining. For I will teach them MY ways and MY ways are different than man's ways and what they have been taught! I will UNRAVEL the teachings that put hard requirements on My people! No more! No more 'rules to win My favor.' These are not My rules! My rules are the commandments. And the greatest is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind. And that is what I will teach My people to do. They will learn how to love Me again, and for many it will be the first time.
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 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.” Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
