Continually Learning

‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your soul’
(Matthew 11:28-29)

Jesus’ followers are called ‘disciples’ a word which has the sense of a student.
Jesus is the master teacher, and just as he promises us rest when we come to him by faith,
he also makes us disciples. As believers, then, we have a life-long task of learning from the Master,
studying the word of God and trusting its promises as we also obey its commands.
And this is not burdensome. Yoked to Jesus as our teacher, we have true rest.

Question for thought: Am I learning every day by listening to the word of God?

Almighty God, we pray for the small group of Mothers Union members in Peru
and pray that there will be a stable government that will free from corruption.
Please bring an end to the severe poverty which many experience.
We pray for Brisbane Diocese and Jenny Bullock, the President and thank you for
its enthusiastic members and ask that they will continue to serve
and reach out to their communities in your name.  Amen
