In a world full of pain and hurt, everyone is looking for somebody to run to. An ear that listens, a heart that empathises, a shoulder to lean on and cry on, and a smile that will brighten up a dark and gloomy day – all of these things are very welcome and needed right now.

Are you looking for someone who would be willing to spare even just a few moments to hear you spill your heart out, with all your hurts, fears and worries? Look no further. Jesus is here for you.

Come to Jesus

Jesus has His arms stretched wide open for anybody who needs a warm, loving embrace. He suffered for our sakes, died in our place, and rose again to give us all the hope that we will ever need. He's the most understanding man ever, and He wants all who need love to just come to Him.

Here are some words from Jesus that will encourage you to come to Him.

Matthew 11:28-30 – "Come to me, all who labor 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 is light." | Pixabay
