pick-your-yoke

Pick your yoke

It is a binary choice.  The yoke of Christ or the Yoke of sin.

“Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am meek and humble of heart;
and you will find rest for yourselves.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.” (Mt 11:29-30)

“do not submit again to a yoke of slavery” (Galatians 5:1)

Note:  A yoke is made for two, like a team of oxen. When oxen are young, they are taught to pull together when hitched to the yoke. When one ox tries to go one way and the other a different way, they experience the pain of pulling against the yoke. The harder they fight it, the worse it gets.
