This is a symbol of repentance, sorrow for sin, and mourning. My yoke is easy, my burden is light. This statement by Jesus pointed to the yoke, a wooden coupling device that connected two animals in plowing. The symbol is teamwork in service and fellowship in a labor of love for good and for God. A yoke secures two.
All yokes are rigorous and hard.
When yoked with God, He pulls the load you share with Him. Without Him, life is heavy, painful and difficult. Christ's load carries him who carries it. All rights reserved.
