Jesus was upset that the Pharisees and scribes made religion a burden. Loving God is not a burden, it is being truly free.
Jesus said everyone who asks of God will receive, who seek God will find Him, and who knocks it will be opened unto. Our Father knows how to give good gifts and will give the Holy Spirit to whoever asks.
Jesus does not want us to carry the weight of being perfectly holy and purely blameless alone. He said to cast our cares on Him for He cares for us. Solomon taught us that we are really only strong and secure when we lean on Jesus, for He will lead us out of the wilderness.
Jesus, help us to choose weakness instead of relying on our own strengths.
