Come to the Living Water
To satisfy your soul
Fills your hearts desire
Makes your Spirit whole
Come to the Bread of Life
A new supply each day
He’ll fill your every longing
When His will you obey
Come to the Light of the World
The darkness disappears
Your path is laid before you
His light dispels your fears
Come to the Lamb of God
Who was crucified for you
He took away your sins
He granted life brand new
Come to the King of Kings
Seated on His throne
Crowned with royal majesty
Worship Him alone
Come to the Lord of Lords
Make Him Lord of your life
Give Him all praise and honor
Your life a sacrifice
So often I am weak and burdened by the cares of this world. It seems they are always thee, pestering me and robbing the time I would rather spend with my God. Household chores, caring for the dog, getting in my exercise, eating (of course) and my workload, plus my writing, all take me away into a place where I walk alone a good part of the time. I feel burdened to get these things done.
But Jesus said to come to Him if we are weak and heavy laden and He will give me rest. He will satisfy my soul. Just a few minutes with Him each day refreshes me. My time in the morning, listening to worship and writing these meditations brings my mind and heart to Him. I am once again reminded that coming to Him is an essential part of my day and I am glad I took the time, made the time, to be in His presence.
Matthew 11:28-30 King James Version
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
The Psalmist 
You know Pete, I was reading Psalms 131 today and this really hit me. “I have not gone after things too great for me, nor marvels beyond me.” I got to thinking, a lot of my “busy” is because I have done just that! Trying to get it all done, and there is not enough time in one day. So today I did not do that, because I have six days to do it in. It was amazing the peace that came with it. Good post and God Bless, SR
