Life would be easier
so much easier
if we can follow the call
the prayer of Christ
to set down the yoke
that which we carry
our lives, the world
and take up his yoke
our cross, and follow him

Alive Now devotional for September 13, 2008
“The Christian way is different: harder, and easier. Christ says, “Give me all. I don’t want so much of your time and so much of your money and so much of your work: I want you.... Hand over the whole natural self, all the desires which you think innocent as well as the ones you think wicked—the whole outfit. I will give you a new self instead. In fact, I will give you Myself: my own will shall become yours.” Both harder and easier than what we are all trying to do.” C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
