When Living for God Feels Like a Burden

Does living as a Christian often feel like a burden rather than a blessing?  If so, you are not alone.  A great number of Christians around the world have not heard all the truth of the gospel.  And partial truth means there are partial lies.

At GLI, we have been in several countries through the years ministering to Christians and we see the same issues as in the States. Those who are sincere about living for God, are often burdened with repeating themes such as unwarranted guilt, shame, anxiety and discouragement.  It matters not what the culture is or the country.  The majority are laboring under a great weight that Hebrews 12:1b tells us to get rid of, “…let us throw off everything that hinders…”

Let me ask you some honest questions.  Are you weary or discouraged with how your Christian life looks?  Does it feel like a burden as you attempt to live it? Or are you internally at rest and at peace with God and yourself?  Jesus promised He would exchange the first two for the last one in Matthew 11:28-30, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  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.  For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

If you would like to experience the “rest” which Jesus promised, I invite you to join me for my annual, “GOD’S BEST-KEPT SECRET CONFERENCE”, March 11-12, 2022.  This is based on my book of the same title but reading it ahead of time is not a prerequisite. It is Friday night and Saturday morning live online. There is an Early Bird special through March 9, a group rate, a couple’s rate, a FREE rate for pastors and their spouses, and a FREE rate for my personal supporters.  Here are some of the benefits of attending.

BENEFITS:

Are You Ready to Trade The Exhaustion of Try Harder Christianity for Trust Him Christianity?

What if Christianity is Easier when Built on the Three Pillars of The New Covenant?

What if you can be happier knowing Christians Don’t Have a Civil War Raging Inside?

What Do We Have That’s Better Than The 10 Commandments that Cause Us to Relax?

Do You Know The Three Unknown Lies that Are Controlling You and Producing Fear?

I will speak on all of these and more! I hope to see you there!
