Mt 11:25-30

Jesus praises the Father for his wisdom. God reveals himself to those who are open and receptive, generally those who are simple and uneducated. Discipleship is not measured by achievement or education. It is a pure gift to those willing to receive. The law is symbolized by a yoke. Rather than living life confused by scriptural interpretation like the scribes and Pharisees, Jesus offers his invitation to discipleship; a life lived loving God and neighbor.

I am learning to balance knowing you with knowing about you, Jesus. By your grace I engage my heart along with my mind in doing your work.
