Thursday 15th Week of Ordinary Time

 

Come to Me. Mt. 11:28

Who doesn’t get a little tired sometimes.

Not just physically, But emotionally as well.

The burdens of life can pile up sometimes and become too much to carry.

And when that happens where do we go?

To bed for a nap?

To the Mall for some shopping?

To the fridge for some comfort food?

To the bottle for a drink?

How well does any of this really work?

It only deals with the symptoms.

None of them solve the real problems of life.

That is why Jesus says,

“Come to Me! And I will refresh you. “

When the burdens of life begin to weigh us down.

And we can find no rest from the demands of life.

There is only one place to go.

To Jesus!

And this is why the doors of the Church are always open.

So that we can Come to Him.

And find rest.
