Daily Bread, reading 4 of 30

Matthew 11:28-30

1 minute

Come to me, all you that labour, and are burdened, and I will refresh you. Take up my yoke upon you, and learn of me, because I am meek, and humble of heart: and you shall find rest to your souls. For my yoke is sweet and my burden light.

Matthew 11:28-30 Douay-Rheims

A thought

Three verses. The invitation is for the tired, with no entry test. A yoke is a tool for pulling a load, so the rest he offers is not the same as having nothing to do.

A question

What would rest look like for you this week, and what is stopping it?

Read all of Matthew 11

That is it for today.
