“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.”

This is a wonderful verse if people understand He did it all, it is finished. Yet I see so many who still try to work their way to heaven. The Apostle Paul tells us our work is a manifestation, a reasonable duty in grateful survice to our Lord, not a way to get to heaven. Works if done with the right heart and motive do yeild rewards in heaven, yet that should not be our focus. I once fell into that thinking and can tell you it is a burden. To let God and allow God to choose the works is so much freeing. God bless your day.
Amen! And here’s a sweet passage from Philippians 4 that speaks on the weariness that weighs us down … with a Worry Worksheet link to jumpstart us ahead just a bit …

Such a beautiful verse and message! Thank you for sharing, as I needed to be reminded of this truth today.
Praise God He died for our sinful selves. During communion eacch week–yes weekly– I often pray God I’m not worthy of your love & grace; I’m just a sinner saved by your grace & mercy–Thank you very much!
This is the verse written on my hand today!!! /) God is so faithful!!!
Aaaaaamen!! Sabbath rest…. He is so faithful to give us what we need.
A soft genuine word statement can make a greater impact on a person bring glory to God. Than a big production of lip service that unintentionally belittles a person and brings glory to yourself.
Thank you for your daily Scriptures, they are a great source of encouragement.
