Come unto Me (11/10-12)

10-12 November 2015 - Come unto Me – Manna by Dorothy Callies 

Song: Come unto Me

1. Hear the blessed Savior calling the oppressed,
“O ye heavy laden, come to Me and rest;
Come, no longer tarry, I your load will bear;
Bring Me every burden, bring Me every care.”
Chorus:
Come unto Me; I will give you rest;
Take my yoke upon you, Hear Me and be blest;
I am meek and lowly, Come and trust My might;
Come, My yoke is easy, And My burden’s light.

2. Are you disappointed, wandering here and there,
dragging chains of doubt and loaded down with care?
Do unholy feelings struggle in your breast?
Bring your case to Jesus, He will give you rest.
Chorus:

Come unto Me; I will give you rest;
Take my yoke upon you, Hear Me and be blest;
I am meek and lowly, Come and trust My might;
Come, My yoke is easy, And My burden’s light.

[Charles P. Jones, Sing His Praise]

Matthew 11:28, 29, 30 Jesus said,
KJV: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your soul. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

NCV: “Come to me, all of you who are tired and have heavy loads, and I will give you rest. Accept my teachings and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in spirit, and you will find rest for your lives. The teaching that I ask you to accept is easy; the load I give you to carry is light.”

Today's prayer:
Dear Lord, I pray for strength and peace into our hearts in time of trouble. I pray for the joy of the Lord into our hearts and that You are our Life. You are our strength. You are our peace since Jesus said, "My peace I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in Me. Trust God." Thank You Holy Spirit for the inspiration this morning. In Jesus' name amen.

May God bless you today.
