Matthew 11:25-28
25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do. 27 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Reflection: The phrase we hear in verse 28 is important. We carry a lot of baggage in our lives. We will have trouble following God with all that baggage. Find something today that is heavy and pick it up. Carry it for a minute. What would it be like if you had to carry that weight with you everywhere? How relieved would you be to get to lay that burden down? What baggage do you carry in your life? How can you begin to lay that baggage on God and walk free from those burdens?
