Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.”
Jesus counters the heavy rules and regulations of the scribes and Pharisees with His unconditional love. It’s not about you and I doing something in order that God will like us. God already loves us infinitely. Jesus showed us this by the way He lived and by the way He died…responding throughout the journey with love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion…even when that response wasn’t deserved. Did you know that you are the beloved son/daughter of God? Allow this fact to sink into your heart. There is nothing you have done or can do to change this!
