He’s not waiting to carry you. He’s waiting to walk beside you.

Fellow disciple,

Let me talk to you like my 6’4” friend once talked to me — straight, loving, and refusing to let you settle for less than joy.

You already know life can feel heavy.
Paycheck to paycheck. Extra weight. Success that still leaves you hungry.
I’ve lived all of it.

But here’s the truth I wish someone had grabbed me by the shoulders and said out loud:

Life is not meant to be hard.
It is meant to be easy — when you stop pulling alone.

A few months ago my neighbor Mike came over.

We sat next to each other in my library studio (a fifth bedroom I turned into a recording space) and just started talking about what “Life Made Easy” actually means.

And reader … what came out of that 45-minute conversation changed both of us forever.

Hard is not holy. Pulling alone is what makes it heavy.

Mike said it plainly:

“Life gets easier when you stop trying to be the whole team.”

That’s it.
That’s the whole secret.

Christ never said “Figure it out yourself.”
He said, “Take my yoke upon you… for my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Two oxen.
One yoke.
Shared strength.
Infinite power.

Fellow disciple, welcome to the fire.

Here’s what actually happened in our bedroom converted vodcast studio with Mike — and why we walked out determined to be better men.

Mike reminded me that willpower is a muscle — and muscles fatigue.
You can grind, hustle, focus, win the trophy, hit the numbers, get the applause… and still wake up empty.

Because negative a million plus infinite is still infinite.

We laughed about living in Japan — trains instead of cars, honor for family instead of me-me-me.
We talked about coming home to America and almost kissing the ground because of all the choices — and how easy it is to drown in 31 flavors when what your soul really wants is living water.

Then Mike said something that fell into the room like a gentle thunder:

“Christ’s love isn’t transactional.
He doesn’t help us so we’ll owe Him.
He helps us so we can become one with Him — and do greater works than He did.”

Greater works.
John 14:12.

Not imitating Him.
Emulating Him — equal or excel (1828 dictionary).

That’s when the lights came on for both of us.

You can climb fast — but if the ladder is on the wrong wall, you still end up empty.

We realized:

• Good and honorable is wonderful.
• But valiant in the testimony of Jesus is infinite.
• Legacy is nice.
• Knowing your Maker is everything.

Mike and I looked at each other and both felt it:
It was time to raise the bar — not in pressure, but in joy.

This is what easy feels like — when you finally let Him pull with you.

Fellow disciple, here’s the joy nobody ever told me:

You don’t have to wait until the storm ends.
You don’t have to wait until you’re “good enough.”
You don’t have to clean up before you come home.

You can walk on water right now — yoked to Him, connected to infinite strength, pulling together, rejoicing always.

The yoke is easy because the power is infinite.
The burden is light because the love is pure.
The joy is daily because the Spirit may be your constant companion.

This is the miracle of discipleship:
You are never meant to carry anything alone.

Pull your chair up. There’s room for one more.

That day with Mike wasn’t an interview.
It was iron sharpening iron.
Two disciples choosing to be better.
Both edified.
Both rejoicing together.

And now, I’m inviting you to the same fire.

Come. The water’s fine when you walk with Him.

Fellow disciple,
your future is as bright as your faith.
Let’s stop playing small.
Let’s stop pulling alone.
Let’s take His yoke and walk on water — together.

See you at the fire. 🔥
