What are you burdens? Maybe the absence of money, a marriage of mayhem or an unreleasing past?
The above invitation is simple - it is for you! The response remains simple too - it is for you to accept or reject!
Jesus is your mentor, your support staff, and your counsellor. He is the air you breathe, the salve you wear and the future you long for. Jesus is not sanitary, sterile or remote. He is real and relational. He is yours and He thirsts to hear from you.
This is the astonishing and accepting God who was pierced on the Cross for you.
So where are your burdens today and where will they be tomorrow?
