SWEET ??
Mat 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Mat 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Because we are yoked with Christ.
True peace of mind.

Like the experienced and strong ox ,Jesus takes the weight of the yoke from the young and inexperienced ox yoked to Him.
I prefer the translation "easy" to" sweet' but the presence of Jesus sweetens every bitter cross and give everything meaning and perspective.

Jesus has no burden, His life carried no sin. When He says to take on His yoke, it means that by adding His yoke to yours, He will help you with your burdens, His are light and yours just got cut in half.

He asks us to love God, and love each other..It shouldn't be very hard or heavy.
