Come unto Christ.

"Come, Follow me"
are such gentle and inviting words.
Christ never said, "come catch me"
He simply beckons us to take part of his love

Why is it then, that so many of us, Don't Come

 
We  have promised, by Jesus Christ himself, to "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest"
 
I can promise you something. His yoke IS easy, and his Burden is Light.
He will give you rest.
 
We have all suffered through our own amount of darkness and despair. There seems to be now way out. No earthy words could ever take away our sorry.
 
How many of us stubbornly refuse to even TRY giving up our sorrows to Christ.
 
I know, because I have been there.
There was a time in my life where, I had been taught principles my whole life. I had been taught about who I was, and that I could rely on Christ.
But yet, I didn't.
I still lacked my own personal testimony of him.  
Instead, I convinced myself that I wasn't miserable. I was fine. I didn't need help.
But the hole seemed to only grow.
 
I promise you, with all my heart, that your Savior, Jesus Christ, Suffered and died for you.
Not only did he die for your sins, but he suffered for your sorrows, sadness and any trial you will ever go through.
He is the only person that can understand the depth of your feelings. He's walked there with you.
 
So, I invite you. Put off your pride, and your stubbornness.
Drop to your knees. Give it all to him.
 
His arms are always extended, and his mercy is filled towards you.
He is always beckoning you to "Come"
