If You Are Feeling Burdened
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 NLT
Are you feeling burdened? I am. But God’s hope and peace is here for us today.
Today I’m facing a big workload, and all three of my children are home with me. It’s so much harder to get things done when they’re here (though I LOVE being home with them)…
I wrote a devotion for Woman 2 Woman Ministries to encourage you if you are feeling burdened today. Keep reading HERE.

If your husband can’t or won’t accept his calling as the spiritual leader of your home, I understand your pain. But I can also offer you hope, dear wife.

Psalm 20:4 NLT

But when Pharaoh saw that relief had come, he became stubborn. He refused to listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the Lord had predicted.
Exodus 8:15 NLT
Do you struggle with stubbornness?
The story of Pharoah’s stubbornness and hardness of heart is a pertinent warning to us.
Today we look at the story of Moses, the Pharoah, and the plagues in Exodus 8 & 9.
Moses was asking Pharoah to release the Hebrew people from Egyptian rule.
Every time Pharoah refused, God sent a new plague over the land.
Pharoah would be exasperated by the plague, relent momentarily, then his heart would be hardened again…Keep reading 3 lessons from this example HERE on my guest post for Woman 2 Woman Ministries.

But real friends are essential, no matter what stage of life we are in. They are worth the risk. Here’s a story of how I had to be brave to make a new friend as an adult.
