best-lighted room. Luke 11:34-36

If God gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers-most
of which are never seen-don't you think he'll attend to you, take

can respond to God's giving. Matthew 6:30,31

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion?
Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll

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
