Venting on God
We all need to vent at times. Life is full of hardships, burdens, and let downs. It feels good to get our problems off our chest. Hopefully you have a fellow believer that is willing to offer a compassionate listening ear. Problem is venting can over stay it’s welcome. People can only listen to so much of our garbage before they begin wishing they had never met us.
Matthew 11:28-30 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 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. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Christ wants our vents, problems, and troubles no matter how big or small they may seem. His yoke was conquered upon his death on a cross. His burden was lifted with his resurrection from the grave. He desires to give us rest. A rest that is achieved by trading burdens with Christ. Swapping yokes with the Savior. Because he defeated the burden of death and slavery to sin some 2000 years ago, he now offers you and I a light burden and an easy yoke. He invites us to unload our problems on him. Let him take control of our life’s struggles. Let him take the weight of the world off of our shoulders. I am so thankful that we have a listening savior who never grows irritated by our constant rants. He desires to give us rest if we will just turn over the keys to our house of issues to him. Accept the offer of restoration of the soul from our savior who unselfishly took on the sins of the world so that we wouldn’t have to.
