Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Sometimes we crumble under the struggles and stresses of life. Perhaps that is necessary for us to finally let go of trying to control everything and to simply surrender it into the hands of God. Jesus gives us a gentle invitation to simply come to Him and place ourselves into His care. Try it. Feel the comforting peace that will enfold and warm you. Sometimes our plans have to be thoroughly thwarted before we will be able to fall into the open arms and loving embrace of God…and then be able to hear the gentle whisper of “I love you” in our hearts. God went to great lengths to give us this message in Christ. Contemplate this for a moment and give thanks.
