Simplicity

And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.”
John 6:35

“All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.”
John 6:37

The weary, the bankrupt, and the humble. Those who hunger and thirst. Those who have come to the end of their own strength, and finally seek God in their despair. Jesus says, “Come to me.”

In my eagerness to dig deep into God’s word and to understand the hidden things, I sometimes forget to consider the simplicity of the gospel of Jesus, the Messiah, the Son of God.

Sometimes our theology can get in the way of our view of God. Sometimes we just need to sit and admire, with clarity, our first love. Jesus.

“Come to me.” He says. He promises to give us rest; to fill our hunger and quench our thirst.

“Come to me.”, He invites. Come to Him and He will do the rest.

Come to Jesus in faith. Come to Him in faith that He has the power and authority to save those who come to Him. Have faith that He will fulfill His promises. We don’t need to understand it all.

Simply, “Come to me.” Salvation freely offered.
