Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

-All you rich men And the high above All of those with And without love All you burdened And broken down Bring all of your troubles Come lay 'em down-

At that time Jesus prayed this prayer: “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike. Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this way! Matthew 11: 25-26

Could it really be so simple, just put your burden down? We want to make this complicated, we want to explain this scientifically. But its so easy, because He did the hard part. -Bring all your burdens (Come lay 'em down) Just lay 'em down-
