Matthew 11:29 (KJV)
“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.”
He became one of us, this was meek and lowly; and, He gave this to us from His heart. No temptation known to us He has not been tempted; He journeyed from His place to ours to be with us in one brief human life as a message of hope and discovery. His journey became the first step into participation (fellowship). His journey became an invitation to learn Him as we reciprocate in participation.
He brings His world into our world in His actions and reactions among us (The Word made flesh as He dwelt among us). Just how important are the Gospel’s in this? Important enough to get inside every narrative left to us; inside the story with deepest cognitive observations, close enough to watch Him breathe. We must get over ourselves that we were not one of the twelve in real life and make the best of what life He has shared and learn Him.
He has come to us once in this way; He will not pass in this way again. No matter what it takes to yoke ourselves up to this exiting journey, we must first decide we want to learn Him. The message He brought to us was “Himself,” find Him, listen to Him, and let us learn of Him.
