Every day I come in contact with mixed-up, paradoxical men and women: rich people who are held
in the grip of insecurity; intellectual people who have lost
their way; strong people who live in fear of weakness and defeat. I long to take every one of them by
the hand and lead them into the presence of the Savior who said, "Come unto me, all ye that labor
and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28,
NKJV).
Why die of thirst when you stand upon the brink of a lake? Why starve to death when you are within arm's length of the Living Bread? Why live in a hovel of spiritual misery when Christ has provided a mansion of divine
peace? Hear and accept the divine
invitation today: "Come unto me, and rest!"
