Passage: Matthew 11:20-30
Sometimes people think that if only they could have heard Jesus teach and seen his miracles in person, then they would surely be convinced of the truth of the gospel. But such is not necessarily the case. Jesus himself issues a warning of judgment upon those cities where he preached the gospel and performed miracles most regularly, and yet people did not repent, but rejected Jesus. Seeing is not necessarily believing, unless we see with eyes of faith opened by God's grace through his Son Jesus. Thus Jesus follows his warning, with one of the most welcome invitations we find in scripture, to come to him and find rest. Jesus' call to come and learn from him and let him carry our burdens, is a call to trust fully in his gracious provision. The choice Jesus presents is clear, we can reject the clear testimony of his words and his works, or we can rest in the kind invitation and promise of his provision for our souls through his burden-bearing sacrifice for us. Join us Sunday as we consider this choice. Which will it be? Are you rejecting or resting in Jesus?
