Matthew 11:16-19, 25-30
16 “Now, to what can I compare the people of this day? They are like children sitting in the
marketplace. One group shouts to the other, 17 ‘We played wedding music for you, but you
wouldn't dance! We sang funeral songs, but you wouldn't cry!’ 18 When John came, he
fasted and drank no wine, and everyone said, ‘He has a demon in him!’ 19 When the Son of
Man came, he ate and drank, and everyone said, ‘Look at this man! He is a glutton and
wine drinker, a friend of tax collectors and other outcasts!’ God's wisdom, however, is
shown to be true by its results.”
Come to Me and Rest
25 At that time Jesus said, “Father, Lord of heaven and earth! I thank you because you have
shown to the unlearned what you have hidden from the wise and learned. 26 Yes, Father,
this was how you were pleased to have it happen.
27 “My Father has given me all things. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one
knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
28 “Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you
rest. 29 Take my yoke and put it on you, and learn from me, because I am gentle and
humble in spirit; and you will find rest. 30 For the yoke I will give you is easy, and the load I
will put on you is light.”
