Matthew 11:29-30 Ye Shall Find Rest Unto Your Souls
Matthew 11:29-30 (KJV) Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Our Lord Jesus bids us to come to Him and learn of Him. Comprehending the condescension of Christ help us to yield our hearts to God through Christ – Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven, and blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted.
In coming to Christ, we can find rest for our souls because our sins will be forgiven us as we confess them before God through Christ. Following Christ is not a difficult but an easy yoke and it is not burdensome but light. He guides us by His good laws that protects and prosper our ways.
The rest that Christ gives is indeed true rest as we come to Him in humility and contrition of heart. Amen.
