Jesus doesn’t want your schedule, your hustle, or your good deeds. Jesus wants YOU. When He said “come as you are” I don’t think He meant “come with a busy life.” He didn’t say “come when you have space in your life.” He meant for you to come right now in your weariness and sit at His feet. He meant for you to be authentically you and not bring your full resume. He meant for you to come now…even in the midst of the craziness of life.
Stop focusing on all the things and focus on Him. How are you supposed to figure out your purpose if you aren’t doing life with the One who created you? How are you supposed to change the world if you aren’t first sitting at the feet of the One who saved the world?
Dear God, I want to sit at Your feet and bask in Your love today. In Jesus’ name, amen.
