Come to Me

I saw you before you were born. Even then you were on My mind, My daughter. I knew you were coming, and I did everything possible to express My love to you and extend My invitation to you. Now that you are Mine, I want you to continue to come to Me. Come to Me when you feel strong and when you feel weary. Come to Me when you are rejoicing and when your spirit is crushed. I ask you to come not only to give you rest, but also because there is so much more I want to teach you. There is more of Me I want to

reveal to you. You see, I did not create you for this fallen world. I created you for Paradise, but the curse of sin tore us apart. I’ve conquered sin and death for you through the death of My son, so come to Me... and live.

Love,

Your King who is waiting

“Come to me, all of you who are weary and

carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you,

because I am humble and gentle,

and you will find rest for your souls.” - Matthew 11:28–29
