Grace for your spirit October 17, 2012


Grace for your spirit
Come unto Me all who are weary and heavy laden, 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.  Matthew 11:28-29

Let me tell you a flawed plan of too many people in the world and in the church.  When they have had a hard week and need rest and recuperation, they reach to the world for their remedy.  On the Lord's day, they sleep in, go fishing, or take a trip instead of worshiping the Lord.   The real long term source of rest and regeneration is found in the abiding presence of the Lord Jesus.  When we decide to come, take, and learn, we will get the rest we need to enjoy our rest, our recreation, and even our work.  It is called seeking first the kingdom, and all the others things will be abundantly supplied.
