Message For May

 

"Are you tired, worn out
Burned out on religion?
Get away with me and you’ll recover your life.
I’ll show you how to take a real rest.
Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it.
Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
Keep company with me 
and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

Matthew 11
