No Rest for the Weary Sermon | Whose Line is it Anyway?

Passage: Isaiah 57:14-21, Philippians 4:4-7, Matthew 11:28-30

Come to me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 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. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. – Matthew 11:28-30

Whether it is on the radio or in a movie you might have heard the phrase, “There ain’t no rest for the wicked.” While this phrase is often attributed to the bible, in the New Testament Jesus presents a different idea about what it means to be weary, and how rest can be found by all people in God. In this sermon Pastor Matthew explores Christ’s call to come to him when you are weary for he will carry our heavy burdens.
