Come to Me...

My dear friend Betsy, wrote this verse to me in a note the other day, and although I had read it so many times before, it just touched me so much. I love that picture of the Lord taking our burdens and exchanging it for his yoke, which is light and gives us rest.

I am yearning for rest these days...and choosing to go to the only place that offers true rest....

"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

Thank you, Betsy
