00:00:00.010 --> 00:00:02.930
Thinking today of a classic verse, Matthew 11,

00:00:03.169 --> 00:00:06.769
28. It says, Come to me, all you who are weary

00:00:06.769 --> 00:00:09.810
and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Often

00:00:09.810 --> 00:00:12.070
quoted, this verse is part of the great promises

00:00:12.070 --> 00:00:14.730
of his presence. He can lift our burdens and

00:00:14.730 --> 00:00:17.129
he can provide rest. I think a big part of this

00:00:17.129 --> 00:00:20.870
is in the trusting. When we know things are this

00:00:20.870 --> 00:00:24.530
way, because he allows them to be this way. And

00:00:24.530 --> 00:00:27.129
of course, we believe in his ability to intervene.

00:00:27.350 --> 00:00:30.609
Then we can stop fretting, which frankly is exhausting.

00:00:30.789 --> 00:00:34.149
I've seen people turn the need for a 99 cent

00:00:34.149 --> 00:00:36.649
part into a life or death matter by letting it

00:00:36.649 --> 00:00:38.969
go on for months because they were too freaked

00:00:38.969 --> 00:00:40.829
out or scared as to how much it would actually

00:00:40.829 --> 00:00:43.729
cost. There's a lot more to it. But that's the

00:00:43.729 --> 00:00:46.429
burden bearing that first comes to mind, perhaps

00:00:46.429 --> 00:00:49.270
because I have both experienced it and regularly.

00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:52.759
needed it. Thank you, Jesus, for intervening

00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:57.340
for us and carrying our burdens. I pray, Lord,

00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:59.280
that those of us, those within the sound of my

00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:03.200
voice, will come to you and say, Lord, help me.

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.159
I'm weary and heavy laden. Coming up, October
