*Scripture: Mt 11:28-30*
/ Come to Me, all you who labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
--- Mt 11:28-30/
Thrust: Only when we accept Jesus' invitation of having a binding relationship with Him can we learn to find true rest for our souls.
/ For they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
--- Mt 23:4/

An Invitation to Rest Our Souls
/ And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils of the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
--- Gen 2:7/

We Can Lose Our Soul
/ For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul?
Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?---
Mt 16:26/
/ And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.
But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.---
Mt 10:28/
!! 2. Fragility of the Soul
/ Why my soul are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me? --- Ps 42:11/
/ Why did I not die at birth?
Why did I not perish when I came from the womb, for now I would have been lain still and been quiet, I would have been asleep; then I would have been at rest.
--- Job 3:11-13/
!! 3. Dehumanization of the Soul
Losing the very consciousness and awareness of himself; becomes something else beside his original creation - the image of God.
!! 4. Our Souls Do Not Belong To Us
/ Behold all souls are mine ... --- Eze 18:4/

II.
The Solution For True Rest
!! 1.
We Need To Be Yoked With Christ
/ Take My yoke upon you ... For My yoke is easy and my burden is light.
--- Mt 11:29-3/
Greek word for easy is /chrestos/ meaning "well-fitting"
!! 2. We Need to Learn From the Burden Bearer
---
!
Challenge
You belong to God and are precious to Him.
We need to choose to be yoked to God and to learn from Him.
