Daily Walk With Christ COCIN Devotional FRIDAY 3RD MARCH 2023

TEXT: MATTHEW 11:28-30.

28 “Come to me, all of you who are weary and loaded down with burdens, and I will give you rest.

29 Place my yoke on you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble, and you will find rest for your souls, Psa 45:4 Jer 6:16 [Gal 6:2] [Phi 2:5] [1Jn 5:3]

30 because my yoke is pleasant, and my burden is light.” 1Jn 5:3.

TOPIC: ANXIETY.

Anxiety is a feeling of worry, nervousness or unease about something with an uncertain outcome. Anxiety can be normal in some situations like public speaking or so. However, when it persists it becomes a problem. Anxiety expresses the lack of peace of God. Anxiety signifies that one’s problem is not only beyond him but also beyond God’s ability to help and to solve. When worry and anxiety become a cycle, it makes one feel insecure. The good news is that Jesus is giving an invitation to the anxious to come and lay down their burdens on him. He will take away all their worries, heavy load and give them true rest. Are you suffering from anxiety concerning an issue? Jesus is offering you rest and peace of mind. Accept and enjoy the rest that only he can guarantee. Do so now!

REFLECTION:

Worrying about your cares solves nothing.

Lord, I lay down my cares and worries at your feet. Amen.

MEMORY VERSE FOR THE MONTH: JAMES 4:1
