Life can be burdensome. We’re easily weighed down by circumstances and challenges, by thoughts and emotions, and by guilt and doubts. Some of it is out of our control and some of it is self-inflicted. Either way, it can be heavy, stressful and tiring. That’s why Jesus offers to relieve us of our burdens and grant us rest. He does this by giving us faith to cast our anxieties on him and trust to let him carry the ‘weight of the world’ in his capable hands.
