Today’s Scripture
Matthew 11: 28-30 (WEB)
Come to me, all you who labour and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Reflection
Listen to Jesus speaking directly to you: “Come to me, all you who labour and are burdened, and I will give you rest.” Imagine walking up to Him and physically unbuckling the heavy pack of worries, deadlines, and expectations you’ve been carrying all week. Rest your head against His shoulder for a moment, and feel the lightness of His yoke.
Grace to Ask For: The gift of interior rest and peace.
Examen: At what moment today did I accept or perhaps refuse to let Jesus share my burden?
