God's ways are simple. His "yoke is not burdensome. His load for us is light." (paraphrased)
Resting in Him is also simple.
The burdens of this life, the cares of this world. The unsubmitted will. The attitude, "I don't want to." These are the things that deceive us into believing that His ways are heavy; that following HIm is complicated.
Surrender frees me from all that. Yielding my will to His--just doing what I know is right despite (without calculating) my feelings--frees me to trust.
I know this war within me: what my redeemed spirit wants to do I end up not doing; what my redeemed spirit does not want to do that I do.
Who will save me from this complicated wretch that I am?!
Thanks be to Christ Jesus our Lord!
