The Invitation
Mar 2, 2025 • Ryan Alonso
Jesus extends a personal invitation to all who are weary and burdened, offering rest for the soul (Matthew 11:28-30). The weight of sin, shame, and striving can feel unbearable, but Christ’s grace lifts the burden. The imagery of a heavy backpack filled with life’s pressures illustrates how we carry things we were never meant to. Through communion, we are reminded of Jesus’ sacrifice, His grace, and the rest He offers. The invitation is clear: come to Him, lay it all down, and walk in His freedom.
