Trinity Lutheran Church; Arendtsville, Pa

In the 11th chapter of Matthew Trinity hears a lesson that seems to be a soft message for all who eagerly answer Jesus' calling. And yet, in the text surrounding our lesson and in our own very lives we see that no one answers Jesus' calling fully, we all struggle with our own stubbornness in light of Jesus' teaching, and we are all met with a God who draws near, replacing a pattern of stubbornness with a pattern of grace.
