A Surety For a Friend

 

Pressing is easier with a friend by your side.
God had so designed for you to lean heavy upon him, so that he could bare the brunt of that weight. With such a powerful helper, how can you fail? In the scripture we hear tell of a team; a yoke of oxen, working together. If the one were to stumble the other “sures up” the weight, and the one that stumbled can regain its footing and they continue on. You know the Lord has made himself a surety to you? I know that word has a different connotation in the context of scripture in the book of proverbs, but not really, ( God will pay your debt if you get into financial trouble’s, he’s got plenty, he’s for you. ) Allow him to link arms with you. Then as you press, you won’t lose your footing and collapse under pressure.

Mark 11:28-30

28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
