Isaiah 26:7-9; Psalm 105; Matthew 11:28-30
Help me with my burdens, Lord
The good person, says Isaiah, is constantly looking for you, Lord. That person’s way is smooth and straight! He longs for your company, she searches for your help. And you, Lord, give us peace. Jesus says similarly: “Come to me, all you who labour and are heavily burdened and I will give you rest. Learn from me – I am gentle. With me you will find rest”. Name your difficulties and present them one by one to Jesus.
