His yoke is easy, but you really do
have to put it on. Bear this burden,
and be borne by its light. Rising with the gravity
of fire and wind, obey his stern command
of mercy. Receive its blessing, and live as children
of God most merciful, God most kind, and God
all mighty righter of wrongs and bringer of peace.

This is lovely and true, Elena. I was thinking along these lines today: this morning I was tempted to use an hour alone unwisely but made the right choice to spend it in thought and prayer. That decision felt like a burden in the moment of choice, but it actually was a sweet time and made the whole day better.
