Finish this statement by Jesus: Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you _______.
Chances are pretty good you know the last word there is rest. Here’s the thing I was thinking about today, though, when I read that verse. How many of us, even if we know that Jesus said rest at the end of that sentence, walk around with the subconscious belief that he instead said something like trouble, or pain, or punishment?
Far too many of us.
