Respite For the Weary
Isaiah 9:6
For a child will be born to us, a Son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
Matthew 1:21-23
And she will bear a Son, and you will call His name Jesus... for it is He who will save His people from their sins. Now all this took place that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled saying, “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel, which translated means “God with us”.
My Child,
Accept Me.
Accept My gifts. Jesus
I led them with cords of kindness, with the bands of love, and I became as one who eases the yoke on their jaws, and I bent down to them and fed them. Hosea 11:4
Dear Lord,
You lead us with unending love; the name of your cords are "gentle" and "kind." But there are other strongholds that bind us, and they can be so harsh and cruel. Help us to know the difference! Cause us to respond to your voice when you say, "Follow me." Then help us to turn to you and be lead by you with trusting hearts. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
