"The other thing I'm learning, also, amidst being here in busy Singapore with much 'noise' and bustle compared to our time in DTS, is that even though there are times that I can't quite put a prayer as expressively as I want to, because I am weighed down by heaviness of heart, is that God is still working. I am reminded of Romans 8:26-27, that the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words.
Doesn't that give us so much hope? That Christ was made nothing like us, in our weakness; that especially when we are weak, we realise even more deeply that He is more than able."
Because He Jesus Christ is God. He doesn't need me to do His work for Him, yet He allows me, desires for me to walk with Him, to do things with Him and He calls me to take His yoke upon me and find rest because His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
Why? Because God loves. Because God is Love.
Romans 8: 26-27 26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
Matthew 11:28-30 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 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. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
