♕ Today's Promise: “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, 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”. Matthew 11: 28–30

Dear Brides,
Have you read the scripture “Owe no man anything, but to love one another.” — Romans 13:8 and felt guilty about debt? I know I sure did... Come and read this chapter ["Owe No Man"] and you will find the hope and joy that I did 🙂
What I have learned is instead of feeling guilty about what I owe I should rather look at the scriptures shared in this chapter “I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for Me?” (Jeremiah 32:27 NLV)
"You created earth and sky by Your great power—by merely stretching out Your arm! There is nothing YOU can’t do. You’re loyal in Your steadfast love to thousands upon thousands” (Jeremiah 32:17, 18a MSG) and other scriptures to know that my HH (Heavenly Husband) wants to move the mountains in my life and every burden or trial is an opportunity for intimacy with Him. His grace is sufficient for me and perfected in all my weaknesses and difficulties.
I have struggled with debt for most of my adult life, looking back I made many wrong choices. Nobody gave me any practical advice or warned me about what could happen if I fell into debt. At times looking back I feel helpless and hopeless, even stupid. But what I have learned is that I need to give this burden to my HH to take care of.
I have also learned that I cannot only accept the Lord free gift of salvation because He paid a price and there is no comparison between this and debt owed because it is what He PAID for. He paid it ALL for me!
I will be living out this principle by having faith to believe what I have learned in this lesson. To give it to my HH (Heavenly Husband) every time I think about it and ask Him to move those mountains in my life.
I have also learned that it is PRIDE that prevents me from going to Him for help. I think that sometimes we forget and revert back to our old selves of trying to fix our own problems instead of the remembering who I am. His Bride.
I have also learned that I may say to myself because I caused the debt that I need to sort it out but I learned that even if I did it intentionally that God is a God of mercy, lovingkindness and He is compassionate and forgiving towards me \o/
Dear Brides,
This chapter is filled with so much truth, it is unbelievable but is HAS to be true because the scriptures back it up!!
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, 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”. Matthew 11:28–30
The writer shared such an amazing truth regarding this scripture saying that as Brides we were designed to give our HH our burdens, she says :
"every time we find something too heavy, we are to yoke ourselves with Him. Each burden was lovingly designed for His brides to simply turn around, handing the burden to our capable Husband."
Wow!!!! \o/ I love it!!
