[4142.90 --> 4143.38] or something. |
[4143.62 --> 4145.04] He uses a yoke |
[4145.04 --> 4145.96] to teach us. |
[4147.84 --> 4149.12] Jesus is showing us |
[4149.12 --> 4149.86] that obedience |
[4149.86 --> 4151.12] to his teachings, |
[4151.50 --> 4153.40] to learn from him |
[4153.40 --> 4155.04] and to do life |
[4155.04 --> 4155.72] with him |
[4155.72 --> 4158.16] leads to real rest, |
[4158.50 --> 4159.62] leads to real Sabbath. |
[4161.02 --> 4162.36] We look for that |
[4162.36 --> 4164.06] all in our lives, |
[4164.24 --> 4165.22] wherever it may be. |
[4165.50 --> 4166.38] We try to find |
[4166.38 --> 4167.26] the right yokes, |
[4167.74 --> 4168.70] the right things |
[4168.70 --> 4169.82] to give us rest. |
[4169.94 --> 4170.64] We really, |
[4171.00 --> 4172.78] desperately desire rest |
[4172.78 --> 4174.48] because that's how |
[4174.48 --> 4175.24] we were created. |
[4175.24 --> 4177.80] But Jesus is saying, |
[4178.88 --> 4179.86] I am the only way |
[4179.86 --> 4181.02] you find that rest. |
[4182.14 --> 4183.20] And how do you do it? |
[4183.24 --> 4184.18] You put on my yoke. |
[4184.70 --> 4185.64] My yoke. |
[4188.16 --> 4189.66] Jesus comes to restore |
[4189.66 --> 4190.34] and to heal |
[4190.34 --> 4192.04] and he is inviting us |
[4192.04 --> 4192.92] into that life |
[4192.92 --> 4195.58] to be his disciples, |
[4195.96 --> 4197.24] to do life with him. |
[4197.34 --> 4198.40] Not just learning |
[4198.40 --> 4199.14] and putting more |
[4199.14 --> 4200.08] religious information |
[4200.08 --> 4200.72] in our heads, |
[4200.88 --> 4202.24] but following him |
[4202.24 --> 4203.36] with our whole lives |
[4203.36 --> 4204.46] because we confess |
[4204.46 --> 4205.92] that our whole lives |
[4205.92 --> 4207.00] belong to him. |
[4207.30 --> 4208.56] Absolutely everything |
[4208.56 --> 4210.14] is in his hands. |
[4211.00 --> 4211.90] And many times |
[4211.90 --> 4212.88] this may seem |
[4212.88 --> 4214.26] like a daunting task, |
[4214.74 --> 4215.96] but Jesus extends |
[4215.96 --> 4217.06] a personal invitation. |
[4217.36 --> 4218.10] Come to me. |
[4218.90 --> 4219.60] Come to me. |
[4220.50 --> 4221.36] Jesus invites |
[4221.36 --> 4222.72] those who are weary |
[4222.72 --> 4223.58] and burdened, |
[4223.82 --> 4224.70] those who are having |
[4224.70 --> 4225.78] a hard time of it, |
[4226.08 --> 4226.84] those for whom |
[4226.84 --> 4228.50] life is hard work |
[4228.50 --> 4230.18] and feel overwhelmed. |
[4231.12 --> 4232.06] And to go a little deeper, |
[4232.24 --> 4233.22] Jesus calls |
[4233.22 --> 4234.06] to him, |
[4234.20 --> 4234.90] those who are |
[4234.90 --> 4235.96] even discouraged, |
[4236.52 --> 4237.64] those who want |
[4237.64 --> 4238.26] to be good, |
[4239.26 --> 4241.80] who want to please God, |
[4242.16 --> 4243.98] to love and serve others, |
[4244.48 --> 4245.66] but many times |
[4245.66 --> 4247.80] feel quite selfish, |
[4248.40 --> 4250.22] quite un-up to the task, |
[4250.70 --> 4251.68] quite inadequate, |
[4252.18 --> 4253.22] and even feel like |
[4253.22 --> 4254.30] failures at times. |
[4254.30 --> 4258.12] And so to those |
[4258.12 --> 4258.90] who are burdened |
[4258.90 --> 4259.38] with guilt |
[4259.38 --> 4260.36] and inadequacy, |
[4261.12 --> 4261.82] Jesus now |
[4261.82 --> 4262.44] appears |
[4262.44 --> 4264.30] and promises, |
[4264.54 --> 4265.22] first of all, |
[4265.68 --> 4266.32] refreshment, |
[4266.46 --> 4267.48] rest for our souls, |
[4268.14 --> 4269.30] but then more importantly, |
[4269.84 --> 4270.72] or just as important, |
[4270.84 --> 4271.30] I should say, |
[4271.68 --> 4273.22] equipment for carrying |
[4273.22 --> 4274.16] our future burdens |
[4274.16 --> 4274.70] and duties. |
[4275.16 --> 4275.82] And that's why |
[4275.82 --> 4276.86] this is good news. |
[4277.66 --> 4278.24] We are called |
[4278.24 --> 4278.90] to take on |
[4278.90 --> 4279.78] his yoke. |
[4279.78 --> 4282.50] And as I finish, |
[4282.66 --> 4283.26] just to reinforce |
[4283.26 --> 4283.76] this point |
[4283.76 --> 4284.84] just a little bit further, |
