Jesus’ invitation in Matthew 11:28-30 to come to him all who are weary and heavy burdened because they will receive his rest is a well used verse of scriptures. Christians love it for the promise it offers both them and those to whom they bring God’s mission. It’s the sort of thing we see on coffee cups, bumper stickers and even well, this pastor’s ‘business’ card. Peace, quiet, no hassles? Is that what Jesus is promising to deliver here? Today we look into what the rest that Jesus offers really is.
