“When Jesus calls us to take His yoke, when He invites us to find rest through submission, He is not satisfying some warped need for power or His own sense of pride. He is calling us to safety. The safety that comes from belonging to Him. The safety that comes from being tamed.”

“There is no yokeless option. It seems to me the weary should be unyoked altogether, but instead Jesus suggests that all people are under a yoke, that it's impossible to not be yoked to someone or something. It may be the yoke of religious law and scrupulous spirituality. It may be the yoke of our desires and passions, as raucous and exhausting as a newborn baby. It may be the yoke of cultural norms and assumptions, the water we swim in. Jesus calls the weary not to follow their own way - that would be a heavy yoke indeed - but to submit to him and learn from him, to take on his yoke... Jesus' yoke is light not because he promises ease or success, but because he promises to bear our burdens with us. He promises to shoulder our load.”
