A Day of Beckoning - May 21, 2015








Matthew 11:28     "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Jeremiah 31:25     I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint."

John 7:37     On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink

Isaiah 45:22     "Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.

Revelation 22:17     The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let the one who hears say, "Come!" Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

Just as the hospital understands that people periodically get sick and they need a place to recover, the church understands that a body can sometimes succumb to sin. Scripture is fraught with people who struggled with sin. The only holy man in the entire Bible is Jesus Christ, the righteousness of God.

We all sin and fall short; we may not have the same struggles at the same time but if I am wrestling with something when your life is at peace it does not give you the right to sit in judgment of me or my struggle because your fight may not be of equal magnitude but odds are you are most likely fighting with something.

Thank God He calls us out of our past; thank God He sees past that “thing” that we believe that no one could possibly love in us. He knows all about us and He still calls us.


No matter what you believe about yourself or what other people tell you that you can and cannot do you must make your way to Jesus. Just know that He has a call that cannot be muted, He has a call with a purpose, He knows your history and He continues to call you.
