Come [Matthew 11 v28]

I found myself singing,/Oh Jesus is a rock in a weary land a shelter in the time of storm/.Our Saviour said come unto me all ye that are weary and
heavy laden and I will give you rest[Matthew 11v 28]The world is full of weary people carrying heavy burdens,people who are grieving,people who are living with pain,mentally physically.One just has to listen to the news
to realise we live in a weary world ,in every street there are people carrying heavy burdens,in every church there are people carrying heavy burdens.
think what it must be like for people living in places continual conflict. we think of the places and people who are living under oppressive religions, or political oppression.Then there are the self inflicted burdens,habits that are destructive,how weary life is,and there appears no way out. But there is,
Jesus,,come to  Him,bare your soul,tell him all,plead with Him,invite Him in,and discover, that he is a rock in a weary land a shelter in the time of storm.
                               A  prayer.
Dear Lord we hear You saying come unto Me,help us to come with all our burdens and hang ups,self inflicted pain, and  find in You that rest we need.
                                         Amen.
