Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
There is not a religion in the world that gives any soul rest; in fact all of them pile on burdens, guilt and condemnation. Their picture of god is harsh at best and always willing to find fault with you. But the grace of God found in and through Jesus Christ has nothing to do with religion. Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give your rest… for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. His grace has no stress, no weariness and no condemnation of any kind. Grace can heal brokenness, anxiety and feelings of judgment of ourselves and others. The grace of Jesus the Christ is always open for our life every moment of every day, you will find rest for your souls. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Today may you experience the full pleasure of his grace for you. Wherever you may be, allow his grace to embrace you so that you may know emotions and thoughts of gentleness and you will find rest and blessing. His life, his goodness and his joy are now yours because of his grace forever. Enjoy! |
