"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."
Have you ever caught yourself complaining about how hard it is to serve in Cornerstone? I find myself complaining quite often actually, and frankly, I hate it when I complain. I feel that leading a small group takes too much time and too much effort when I have other things in my life I am worrying about. I feel like we, myself included, get burned out so early on in the semester that the remaining stretch sucks the life right out of us. But this should not be. This job, though difficult, is not meant to make us grumble, crawl, or loath in discontentment, but rather a hiding place of refuge and rest. Wee need to be recharged. Like a battery out of power seeking a fix of energy so we too should seek rest from our Father. We should avoid the grumbling and fix our eyes on the one who promised a yoke easy and a burden light. Ajah Ajah Fighting!
