    Amy you are preaching!! This is so good! Your yoke analogy and the “connecting” makes so much sense. I went back to read Psalms 16 and verse 2 popped out to me.

If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” We have to connect ourselves to Him. In doing so, we can do all things, that He calls us to, and we won’t grow weary.
