Five Minute Friday- “Pressing In”

When we falter under pressure
and our heart succumbs to strife,
under desperate weight and worry,
Jesus is our guide.
Every thought is weary,
angry fires stoked.
Release the world with joyous praise,
surrender to His yoke.
Live in active obedience-
through faith pursue His will.
Cease intrusive desires,
in quiet peace, be still.
Hardships we find heavy,
Jesus calls them light.
Disciplined intentions
Blindness replaced by sight.
When the day’s oppression
leads to fitful rest,
Come those with heavy burdens,
and He will give you rest.
