Jesus is our strength

Jesus is our strength

We share in his strength and in him we find our rest.

Meditation

Hi there,

The strength of the Lord is a gift to all who trust in Him. In God, strength comes when needed and does not come alone; it is typically accompanied by other protections.

His strength is an ever-present power and protection against the world and its designs.

Today's passage might initially seem counterintuitive, as Jesus is offering rest, not strength, but look again and you'll see that he isn't offering to remove our burden but to share it.

So we share in his strength and in him we find our rest.

Today's text is Matthew 11:25-30

The Father Revealed in the Son

²⁵At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. ²⁶Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.

²⁷“All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

²⁸“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. ²⁹Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

³⁰For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Encouragement

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.

Psalm 28:7
