Birthday Self Reflection | Another Invitation to Rest

What a coincidence that I'm talking about embracing your humanity and I leave the cords for my microphone in the shot - SMH and also COMICAL. I've never done this before, but sometime things happen and we can either ignore and fix it or we can say, hey I'm human!
Anywho...
This birthday week I am reflecting on a revelation I had Sunday.
1- We are not God, and thank goodness for that
2- Embracing your humanity means freedom and healing
3- Obedience doesn't equate to lack of pain
4- To be human is to experience pain
5- To play God is to carry the burdens and expectations of others
*Jesus did that so we wouldn't have to
I always come back to this verse, because I get amnesia often... lol
Matthew 11:28-30
“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.”
As always...
Infinite love and gratitude! xx

SO GOOD! “Obedience to God is NOT the absence of pain!”
