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 my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
Come to me
For rest
It's not about following rules or about our performance
It's not about what you have to do...but what you choose... Jesus simply says choose me
And I'll walk with you...we'll share...you'll learn what it's like to be me, my heart of love for you...and for the lost...you'll learn what breaks my heart and how you can help with that
And I'll learn about your heart, your deepest needs and I'll help you with what burdens you as we journey together...

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
