“Take a Whack at Weezer”
28 “Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 (NLT)
During the holidays, I enjoyed talking to a dear cousin of mine. We reflected on the times in both of our lives when our loads were tremendous. We thought about how these times weighed on us and that’s when he made laugh. He related our feelings to a Steel Magnolia scene. He asked me,”Susan, did you ever want to “take a whack at Weezer?” My answer, “OH YES!” “Not one time, but many times, I wanted to “HIT SOMETHING, and HIT IT HARD!”
I think we can all relate to wanting to “take a whack at Weezer.” In Matthew 11, Jesus invites us to come. HE wants to support us and come to him in when we are suffering. The Lord wants to walk you through what life throws at you. HE wants you to call on Him when you want to “take a whack at Weezer.”
