Come Weary Saints

Are you weary in life? Are life’s burdens hard to carry? The path of the Cross—too difficult to tread? Do you feel exhausted? Depressed? Are you suffering from persecution–physical or emotional? Perhaps you just simply need an encouraging word from fellow believers?

If your answer is “yes” OR “no” to any of the above questions—then I hope this site will be helpful to you as you read through stories, scriptures, quotes and more from other believers world-wide who desire to encourage/build you up through their words.  See the Blog.

We can truly say from experience — as a believers in Christ Jesus, that we all experience times of plenty and times of great trial. Yet whatever the circumstances are in life, we all need to be constantly reminded of the Cross of Christ and meditate on His word and His promises. Perhaps even more so when we are at a place of comfort in our lives, because it is so easy to be distracted and turn our gaze from the Cross to other, temporal and earthly pleasures and treasures.

We are here with ONE life on this earth. Let us not waste it! Dedicate it to the glory of the LIVING GOD! Serve Him passionately!

“We measure the worth of a hidden treasure by what we will gladly sell to buy it.  If we will sell all, then we measure the worth as supreme.  If we will not, what we have is treasured more.  “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up.  Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field” (Matt. 13:44).  The extent of his sacrifice and the depth of his joy display the worth he puts on the treasure of God.  Loss and suffering, joyfully accepted for the kingdom of God, show supremacy of God’s worth more clearly in the world than all worship and prayer.  This is why the stories of missionaries who gladly gave their all have made God more real and precious to many of us.”

-John Piper, Let the Nations Be Glad! 2003 edition.
