Text: Matthew 11:28
A burden is something heavy, too difficult to carry. Burdens come in different forms and they affect our lives. Examples include:
- Finances; bills to pay and credit to settle
- Relationships; strained
- Family; children going wayward
- Work; increasing demand from employers
- Illness; alcohol addiction, depression, grief
- Others; loneliness, worry, unforgiveness, lealousy
Jesus knows exactly how we feel inside. He has given an open invitation to all of us, to come with all our burdens. He has promised us rest.
28Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
