Burdens that are Blessings

Let's be honest.  Most of us hope for a life that's unburdened, where we are free from all yokes around our necks.  Then here comes God's Son, Savior of the world, freeing us of some of the burdens the world tries to put around our necks, true. But also placing burdens upon us and yokes around our necks to guide us.  Are you really the Messiah or should we wait for another?
