The Easy Yoke
"For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."Matthew 11:30
Reflection
A yoke was the beam two oxen used to pull together. Jesus is on the other side, pulling with you. That is why it feels light.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for pulling alongside me. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- What is a yoke?
- Who pulls with us when life is heavy?
- Why does Jesus' burden feel light?
5-minute activity
Try a three-legged race: tie one of your legs to the child's leg with a scarf and walk together across the room. Talk about Jesus walking beside us and pulling together. Read Matthew 11:29-30.
