My burden is light?

Light? To believe that a God sent his son to die for me? A son I have not met, who has not spoken, whose Spirit goes quiet?

To live putting him first, above family, friends, self? To trust in the promise of his Word, a book handed to me by a man? A creature that this God's Word tells me is full of sin. Yet his word is trusted to man for thousands of years.

Asked not only to believe, but to Go! Needing to understand that those who are not convinced will go to Hell. Good people...friends...family...all condemned to death for not being convinced that Jesus died for them.

Light? Not to me. Not this journey. I need help and cry out for it but get silence and doubt.

God who hears all prayers, hear mine. Reach out to me in a direct way. Make yourself known to me. I go back to my first prayer.

Lord, be strong in my life
Help me to find my faith
And I will follow you!

Be strong, an all powerful God who has pity on a lost sheep. One who made it back into the flock, but is struggling to keep up.

Show me that it is true what you said, "For my yoke is easy and my burden is light". Help me lift.
