Jesus’ Invitation to Rest (Matthew 11:25-30)
In Matthew 11, Jesus praises the Father for hiding His redemptive plan from the proud, but makes Himself known to infants and the humble. All of this lays the foundation for Jesus’ invitation to rest. Like the infants, Jesus is gentle and humble and offers this rest (His grace) to those who know they are weary and burdened by sin and life in a fallen world.
