Stuff Jesus Says

A sweet high school girl in the youth group reminded me of this today.

“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.”
Mtt. 11:28-30, NIV

Rest for my soul. Sounds nice.

"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion?
Come to me.
Get away with me and you'll recover your life.
I'll show you how to take a real rest.
Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it.
Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
Keep company with me
and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
Mtt. 11:28-30, MSG

Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
Learn to live freely and lightly.


Yes.
