There are weary, burdened ministers all around. They hear Jesus’ words in Matthew 11:28 as a personal invitation. “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” Let’s learn together. Let’s restore rhythms that we so desperately need.
Jesus knew Mary's name. Jesus knows ours. When Jesus calls our name, we know that we are called not to hold tightly, but to trust what we have seen and heard. Jesus goes with us. Always.
