fighting the yoke – v10

Choosing submission,

entering the yoke of Jesus;

Standing by our Brother,

but perhaps having buyer’s remorse

Yanking at the bit,

fighting the yoke;

Wanting to be faithful,

but remaining timid, rebellious

Fighting the yoke,

while working the fields;

Not going away, leaving,

but failing to yield
