Is 40:25-31/Mt 11:28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and find life burdensome, and I will refresh you.” Mt. 11
What if we do weary on the way? What if we begin to doubt that we can do what’s needed of us, in order that the new birth, forming itself in our depths inside the life we’re leading, will come forth?
These passages call attention to a relation between burden and strength, and between experience and wisdom. They call us to awareness of a source of strength that is beyond questioning. How to connect with it? Resting in the knowledge of its eternal presence, the weary one of faith willingly accepts this strength again and again, summoning it freshly in each unfolding moment, moving the process toward renewal in its fruition.
Mantra: Yoke of strength, carry to new life.
