Matthew 11:28-30 – “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 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. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Even for a leaf the time to let go comes. Jim Elliot famously said “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” One day our life on earth will end. Then our eternity begins. We must let go of our life and give it to Jesus. Then what Jim Elliot said will be true and we will enter eternity with what we cannot lose.
Jesus said in Matthew 11:28-30 – “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 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. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
