DAY 2 — His Yoke Is Easy
What a Grand Invitation! Jesus promises rest twice in this verse. There can be NO DOUBT that His will for us is to live in His rest. A yoke connects two oxen and enables the younger, weaker ox to be helped by the stronger ox. Jesus is the strong ox, and by being yoked to Him, we will easily get to His destination for our lives. To be yoked to Him means to receive Him, to agree with His Word, and to say what He says. As we do this, we will find the Christian life to be a joy-filled journey, in spite of our circumstances and trials.
Matthew 11:28-30 (NASB)

About this Plan
In part 2 of this devotional, you're going to continue to discover that God is committed to keeping His promises to you––no matter how far you've fallen, how often you've failed, or where you are in life. God doesn't need our holiness to prove His holiness. He doesn't need our promises to keep His promises. The struggle is over and Jesus did it all.
