Come to Me!

I am sure all of us feel tired from our hard works. Some of us feel boredom. Stress and tension become so visible in our lives. From time to time, when our problems and worries overwhelm us, we all find life difficult and discouraging. On many occasions, people do not know where to go or how to overcome their stress, tensions, depression and misfortunes. 

In the midst of trying to cope up our lives, in the Gospel reading today, the Lord invites us “Come to me all of you who are tired and are overburdened and I will give you rest,” (Mt 11:28). He tells us that He came to carry the weight of ours and to free us of our burdens.

We should know that life is not a bed of roses. No one in this world is exempt from illness, suffering, stress, tension, etc. They are the crosses that we all have to bear every day. Remember that on our own we can do nothing. We need to rely on Him alone.

In the most difficult periods of our life the Lord will never abandon us. Jesus replied. “My child, I love you and I would never leave you". Whatever is it; leave it in the hands of the Lord and in His time He will make everything beautiful in your life.
