Matthew 11:28-30 is the bible verse of the day on BibleGateway.com today. The Message and NIV verses of these verses are posted below.

What great verses to start out the day.  Found Jim Shaddix’s sermon on these verses helpful.  Here’s one sermon quote.  “Jesus is inviting people to accept him as the only way to know God instead of being the object of Satan’s joke by trying to measure up.”

Matthew 11:28-30 (MSG)

^28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

Matthew 11:28-30 (NIV)

²⁸ “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. ²⁹ Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. ³⁰ For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
