“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.” — Matthew 11: 28-30
Jesus reveals for us more clearly than anyone or anything else who God is. “Come to me. I will give you rest.” Rest is a gift of God, an expression of God’s loving kindness and compassion towards us.
