Come to Me

In our desire to accomplish good and effective things each day, we often forget that we might accomplish more if somehow we "lived apart" with Jesus and went out to serve at his direct command.  Jesus has invited us in the familiar and beloved words:  "Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.   Take my yoke upon you and you will find rest for yourselves.  For my yoke is easy, and my burden light." (Mt 11: 28-30). Can we accept, can we live this invitation in our busy, too many "things to do" world?  There is always a deadline, we are always running behind, rarely can we just sit and be with Jesus.  Yet, can we afford not to BE with our best friend, with the One who knows and loves us beyond our wildest imagination?  We've heard the slogan, Less is More...less "things to do", more time with Jesus, more effective results.  And "if at first we don't succeed, let us try, try again."  It's worth it and it works.
