„DOĐITE SVI K MENI...“ ISUSOVO OBEĆANJE....

Tražite snagu od Boga, ako ste umorni i opterećeni. On vam je dao i ovo obećanje, da će vas On obnoviti (odmoriti, osvježiti) ako uzmete utočište u Njemu, i sve svoje brige položite Njemu na srce. On je Utješitelj svih ožalošćenih, Otac sve siročadi, On je vaš Prijatelj i Brat i Pomagač u svakoj nevolji. „Dođite k Meni svi koji ste umorni i opterećeni, Ja ću vas osvježiti....“ Njegove Riječi su utješne, ako samo duboko vjerujete. I u kakvoj god nevolji se nađete, znajte za Jednoga, Koji vam je pomaže nositi, Koji je uvijek spreman otkloniti vam ju, čim vi u Njega vjerujete. Za ljude bi zemaljski život bio mnogo lakši, ako bi se oni držali Isusova obećanja, ali njima skoro uvijek nedostaje vjera, inače bi Mu oni pouzdano iznosili sve brige, i željeli Njega moliti za pomoć. Kako malo vi iskorištavate snagu molitve, i kako malo vi koristite milost Božanskog obećanja. Sve što vas pritišće gubi na važnosti, čim vi to položite Njemu na srce, čim vam On to pomaže nositi. A On neće ostaviti neuslišanu vašu molitvu, jer Njegove Riječi su Istina: „Ja ću vas osvježiti....“ On će vam dati snagu, štogod vas snađe (dođe nad vas), tako da vi sve možete savladati, i vaše srce biti slobodno i lako. Ali, sve dok čovjeku nedostaje povjerenje u Njegovu spremnost da pomogne, u Njegovu Ljubav koju Bog okreće svima potlačenima i ožalošćenima, on Njemu ni ne pristupa u molitvi, i ne uzima snagu koju mu je Bog obećao. I njegov zemaljski put je mnogo teži i mukotrpniji. On ne traži nikakvu vezu s Bogom, Koji mu jedini može pomoći u svakoj nevolji, i na njemu se nikada ne može ispuniti Isusovo obećanje.

AMEN

"Come to Me, all of you...." promise of Jesus....

Seek strength from God when you are weary and burdened. He has also given you this promise, that He will refresh you if you take refuge in Him and bring all your troubles to His heart. He is the comforter of all who are afflicted, the father of all orphans, He is your friend and brother and helper in every need. "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest...." His words are comforting if only you have deep faith. And whatever hardship you find yourselves in, you know of one Who will help you carry it, Who is always ready to take it off your hands as soon as you believe in Him. People's earthly life would be much easier if they kept Jesus' promise, yet they usually lack faith or they would trustingly present all their worries to Him and ask Him for help. How little you use the power of prayer and how little you make use of the grace of the divine promise. Everything that weighs you down loses its significance as soon as you lay it on His heart so that He may help you carry it. And He will not leave your prayer unanswered, for His words are truth: "I will refresh you...." He will give you the strength, whatever comes upon you, so that you can master everything and your heart will become free and light. Yet as long as a person lacks trust in His willingness to help, in His love, which God bestows upon all the oppressed and afflicted, he will not come before Him in prayer and obtain the strength God has promised him. And his path on earth is much more difficult and painful. He does not seek contact with God, Who alone can help him in every need, and Jesus' promise can never be fulfilled in him....

amen
