Zechariah
8:1-6. Luke 9:46-50
See how the Father's will is done,
promises fulfilled. He promised
to restore to their own land the
people He had called to love and
serve Him - both for their own sake
and that He might make them lights
for others in His world. Continually
they failed Him, but He trained
and led the remnant who were faithful
and followed where he led and guided.
And to that faithful remnant was
given the Life and Light and Hope
of every man and woman born into
His, the Father's world: in humility
and peace and gentleness He came;
through obedience , suffering and
death He overcame all that hindered
man from union with the Father.
Come to Me, all who labour and
are heavy-laden, and I will give
you rest. Take My yoke upon you
and learn from Me for I am gentle
and lowly in heart, and you will
find rest for your souls, for My
yoke is easy and My burden light.
