My yoke is easy and My burden is light.  – Mt 11:30

Reflection.  Every burden is light when we are united to Christ.  It is He Who gives us the strength to go on walking.  On the other hand, the burden of life is heavy when it is carried without Christ!

Prayer. Dear Lord, sharpen my mind that I may have insight.  I want to focus on the positive aspects of my faith — mainly I want to focus on You.  Remind me to call upon You the instant I begin feeling sorry for myself.
