    The invitation to come to Jesus is not just for those who do not know Him—it is for all of us, whether we are burdened by sin, overwhelmed by life, or weighed down by emotional pain. Jesus promises to give us rest, but we must come to Him in faith, humility, and surrender.

    COME UNTO ME ALL YE WHO ARE HEAVY LADEN By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 11:28 Supporting Texts: Psalm 55:22, 1 Peter 5:7, Isaiah 40:29-31 INTRODUCTION: Jesus’ invitation in Matthew 11:28 is one of the most comforting and life-giving calls found in Scripture.

    Looking at Simon being forced to carry the cross, we consider the call of each Christian to carry a cross as part of the life of faith.
