Jesus gives us an invitation to come to Him in this weekend's Gospel reading. He invites us into a life in which we are caught up in the great mysteries of God, which He reveals not to the proud, but to the meek and humble. We are forgiven of our sins, and brought to new Life by God's Spirit, the same One who raised Christ from the dead. We are made part of the new reign of God, in which our King reigns with great peace over all the Earth, even in our own hearts.
We are invited to leave behind the old life of sin, and take up this new Life, in which Christ is ever present with us as we bear this life's burdens. We take on his yoke, so that our burdens are no longer so great, because He's alongside us.
