Come to Me
The Lord said, ‘Come to me.’
But I said, ‘I’m not worthy.
‘Come to me’, he repeated.
And I said, ‘I’m afraid.’
‘Come to me.’ ‘I’m too proud.’
‘Come to me.’ ‘But I’ve no appointment.’
‘Come to me.’ ‘
But I can’t afford the time right now.’
‘Come to me.’ With that I fell silent.
The he said,
‘Come … sit down … take the load off your feet.
Sit here as in the shade of a tree.
Refresh yourself as at a running stream.
Here you will find rest. Here you will find peace.
And your yoke will become easy,
and your burden light.’ |
