Mixed Media | Are You Living Up To God's Expectations?

We have tried a few different mediums here at New Church Perspective, and this week we offer a video by Ronnie Schnarr. Watch Ronnie's powerful message about what God wants for us compared to what the hells want for us. Where does your burden and your anxiety actually come from? -Editor

The Lord tells us that His "yoke is easy and His burden is light," but I think a small part of us all goes "Yeah right, spiritual life easy? I don't think so." But what a lot of us don't know is that the load we think we are supposed to be carrying is not something the Lord has put on us at all, but is something we have put on ourselves. The Lord's expectations are light in comparison and His work actually brings rest into our life in the long term.
