“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."
Matthew 11: 27-29 (Jesus speaking)
So...what's on your mind today?
What is the one thing that has been worrying you?
What is the one thing that keeps rolling around in your head without an answer?
What is the one thing that you are so excited about it can't happen soon enough?
Regardless of what your one thing is - have you discussed it with God?
You might be thinking, "God doesn't have time for my stuff. He's keeping the world turning - loving everyone on the planet - making sure the sun comes up in the morning and goes down at night (by time zone) - He can't possibly have time for my one thing."
But the thing is - God wants your one thing.
He wants to be a part of all of your things - big or small.
He wants to carry your burdens and celebrate your wins.
He wants to be in all things with you....
And He wants you to be in all things with Him...not just one thing.
All too often we relegate God to church on Sundays - one hour or maybe a little more per week. We leave Him behind Monday through Saturday when we are living our "real" lives.
We choose not to have Him involved in our various things. Instead we just invite Him in to the one thing we think He would approve of.
How would your life look if you started asking God into your Mondays through Saturdays rather than just leaving Him for the Sundays?
What would change about the one things in your life?
He wants to be there - "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." He knows we are heavy with all of the one things in our lives...but He wants to help ease our burdens...carry our loads.
Give your one thing - good or sad - to God this week and see what a difference Monday - Saturday can have when you get to Sunday....
Scripture
Matthew 11:27-29
Quote:
“Well, I do think someone might have arranged about our meals,” said Digory.
“I'm sure Aslan would have, if you'd asked him,” said Fledge.
“Wouldn't he know without being asked?” said Polly.
“I've no doubt he would,” said the Horse (still with his mouth full). “But I've a sort of idea he likes to be asked.”
