Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according Saint Matthew 11, 28-30

Jesus said to the crowds:
“Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am meek and humble of heart;
and you will find rest for yourselves.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.”

God will give you rest

1. Come. Today God proposes that you should come back to Him, to find Him again. I’m sure that at one time or other you found God and invited Him into your life, but this crazy life that you lead may have pulled you away from Him; you may have distanced yourself from God. That happens to all of us. So, let’s go back to Him. He always welcomes us with open arms.

2. Tired and burdened. We have a clear picture of what this means. We are physically tired because of the kind of life we lead. It has overpowered us without giving us the possibility to pause and take a breath. We are also burdened with the psychological and spiritual tiredness that we feel. When we do not let our mind rest, or we do not give our spirit the time to repose, we can feel overwhelmed. This tiredness is more difficult than the physical type because your muscles can rest, but it is not easy to let your mind rest. Let’s turn to Jesus who invites us to rest and let our worries go. Today, analyze what issues burden you, and invite God to help you solve them.

3. Humble of heart. Jesus’s heart is always open for you. During Advent, it is important to return to the right road, God’s path, because He desires your happiness, and He wants you to be eternal. Search for God, He will alleviate your burden and soothe your pain.

Never forget that something good is on the way! 

God bless you, be with you and protect you in the name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
