The Holman Christian Standard Bible translation captures the meaning of the original Bible languages while offering the perfect mix of purity and clarity. It is committed to leaving both the grace and gravity of the original languages intact while giving a smooth flow of wording for the reader.
Two thousand years ago, a book was written under the inspiration of God that has a pattern for all mankind to live by. Can a book written so long ago still speak to the needs of our day? Jesus gives the perfect invitation to this stressed-out generation in Matthew 11:28-30: "Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. All of you, take up My yoke and learn from Me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for yourselves. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
Jesus' invitation is still valid to us because the basic human need is still the same: People are weary and burdened down from the process of living life without God.
Bless someone today by sending them God's comfort and love.
