Day 2: Christ Our Example
Day Two: Christ Our Example
Reading: Matthew 11:28-30; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21
Devotional: Jesus invites the weary and burdened to come, take, learn, and find rest. Notice the verbs: come to Him routinely, take from His Word, learn His ways, and you will find soul rest. Christ doesn't promise an easier life but a shared life—walking in step with Him like a younger ox yoked to an experienced one. Through His redemptive work, we're recreated, reconciled to God, and given a new rhythm. The old has passed away; the new has come. Yet how often do we live from the old patterns rather than our new creation identity? Christ reestablishes our rhythm through reconciliation. Today, choose to live redeemed, following His gentle pace rather than the frantic tempo of this world.
