God promises Rest. Identifying who is weary and burdened; why rest matters; soul rest is physical, but much more: rest from decisions; relationships, thoughts and feelings; To take the yoke means to accept the direction of your master – who is gentle and humble in heart.

God promises love. If God is for us – which is the basic decision of faith; Proofs – he gave his son; Jesus intercedes; nothing stands between God’s love and us.
