NO matter
how hard you try to live right, you just can’t stop…being greedy, lusting after
your mate’s wife, bragging, gossiping or manipulating others for self-gain – or
whatever it is that drags you down. It’s so tough trying to be upright; you’re
weary, is it worth it? Try listening to what Jesus said; He’s already done it
all for you and He’ll teach you.
In Matthew 11: 28 Jesus said, “…Come to me all of who are weary and carry
heavy burdens and I will give you rest…Let me teach you because I am humble and
gentle at heart and you will find rest for your souls.” Jesus offers people
spiritual rest that comes in two forms. First, you no longer have to tire
yourself out battling not to be a sinner because by God’s grace Jesus has taken
your sin upon Himself at the cross. Second, you can relax in the knowledge that
Christ provides eternal rest for you to look forward to. To Him your burden is
light; trust Him with it.
