Peace and Rest

28 "Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you
rest. 29 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. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30

 
How we come to Christ is a mystery to many and to others it is too often an afterthought. Many of you know that I am a part of The Two Year Academy for Spiritual Formation #33 which meets in Donaldson, IN., put on by the Upper Room, the same ministry of our church that produces the daily devotional by the same name. This study and growth opportunity has been a healing balm as I have gone through personal trials during this same time frame.
