Matthew 11:28–30 — Come to Me, All Who Are Weary Live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Brisbane • Auckland • Singapore • Charlotte • Bogotá REST • STRENGTH • PEACE Good morning, and welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I’m Reverend Ben Cooper. As this Saturday morning unfolds, perhaps your mind is already full of responsibilities, conversations, plans or concerns. Whatever this day is asking of you, Jesus begins not with another demand but with a loving invitation. Life has a way of placing weight upon our shoulders. Sometimes it arrives through work, family responsibilities, unexpected circumstances or the quiet pressures that few people ever see. We often try to carry everything ourselves, believing we must stay strong for everyone around us. Yet Jesus never asks us to struggle alone. Instead, He gently calls us to come close to Him, bringing every burden into His safe and faithful hands. Matthew 11:28–30 (NIV) “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, 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.” What a gracious invitation from our Saviour. Jesus does not promise a life without challenges, but He does promise that we never have to face them without Him. As we place today’s worries, responsibilities and unanswered questions before Him, our hearts begin to settle because His strength becomes greater than our own. So today, let’s gently remind ourselves that fear will not win, because Christ walks beside us, carrying what we were never meant to carry alone. Father, thank You for Your constant care and for inviting us into Your presence. Thank You that we never have to hide our weariness from You. Lord Jesus, help every listener who feels tired, overwhelmed or anxious today. Replace heaviness with Your peace, strengthen those whose hearts feel weary and remind each one that Your grace is more than enough for every moment they will face. Holy Spirit, teach us to trust more deeply, to surrender more freely and to walk through this day with quiet confidence, knowing that You are always with us. Across the world, from Brisbane to Auckland, from Singapore to Charlotte and Bogotá, may every listener discover the gentle rest that only Jesus Christ can give. Jesús, hoy deposito cada carga en Tus manos de amor. Jesus, hoje entrego cada peso às Tuas mãos de amor. Jesus, inilalagay ko sa Iyong mga kamay ang bawat pasanin ko ngayon. Amen.
