Matthew 11:28-30

So after my extended whine and Pity Party (attendance: 1) of yesterday, I did my Bible Study last night.
I Am Not Making This Up: the assigned passage for the Portals of Prayer devotion yesterday was Matthew 11:25-30.

Matthew 11:28-30 is one of my favorite passages of all time, and one I really needed to read yesterday.

28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Thanks, God.

That's going to cost a LOT, and I have no idea where it's coming from. And now of course taxes are coming due and we might or might NOT owe the feds anything, depending on what I can find out about our Property Tax - but we certainly will owe the STATE, because I just found out that my Short-Term Disability didn't take out any state taxes whatsofreakingever, so we'll owe the state at least $200. PLUS we'll have to paint, and I hope to God that we can get the carpets half...
