God Quote-Come To Me

JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the Lord says in Matthew 11:28 and 29.

Jesus said, “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.”

A yoke is a wooden beam that is used between a pair of oxen. This beam helps them to pull together on a load when working in pairs.

Jesus is inviting us to do life with Him-to go in the same direction as He is going. Jesus is inviting us into a relationship where we can learn from Him in a supportive environment, and find rest for our souls. That is the impact of His grace.

Matthew 11:28 and 29-That’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for life.
