• The Invitation...

  

  "Come unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy-laden, and I will give you rest."

  Whatever your anxieties and trials, spread out your case before the Lord.  Your spirit will be braced for endurance.  the way will be opened for you to disentangle yourself from embarrassment and difficulty.  The weaker and more helpless you know yourself to be, the stronger will you become in His strength.  The heaver your burdens, the more blessed the rest in casting them upon the Burden Bearer. 

  Worry is blind, and cannot discern the future; but Jesus sees the end from the beginning.  In every difficulty He has His way prepared to bring relief.  Our heavenly Father has a thousand ways to provide for us, of which we know nothing.  Those who accept the one principle of making the service and honor of God supreme will find perplexities vanish, and a plain path before their feet.  DA329/330
