Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened

Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened

"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

The greatest Teacher—is the most gentle and tender of all teachers. He is "gentle and humble in heart." Possessing all the treasures of knowledge, He will stoop to impart the very elements of it to the weakest and dullest learner.

" Learn from Me ," He says; "sit at My feet, be My disciple, and I will teach you what you have need to know, and as you are able to bear it. And as you receive the truth at My lips—you shall experience deliverance from the trammels of darkness and unbelief.

The entrance of My word shall give light. The truth shall make you free, and you shall be free indeed—free from the guilt of sin, through faith in My precious blood; and free from the power of inward corruption through My sanctifying Spirit; and so you shall find rest unto your souls. Learn of Me, imbibe My Spirit—and you too shall become gentle and humble in heart.

You shall be delivered from the restlessness of pride, have true humility and lowliness of mind, and enjoy repose of soul amidst all the distractions and turmoils of life!"

"Jesus, cast a look on me;
  Give me sweet simplicity;
  Make me like a little child,
  Of my strength and wisdom spoiled,
Seeing only in Your light;
Walking only in Your might;
Leaning on Your loving breast,
  Where a weary soul may rest!"

Back to Every Day!
