Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Jesus gives His Great Invitation: to come to Him and find relief. The idea of "rest" is not a long night's sleep, or doing nothing because you're tired of doing something. It is relief from the struggle - the struggles of everyday life in a world marred by sin, and the struggle to try to make up for the sin from within. It is an endless battle, which we cannot win on our own. We need someone, the only One, to come take of our burden, take on our struggle, and give us relief.
