How often Jesus longs to gather us to Himself—not to traditions or religion. But to Himself. To be with Him. To give everything to Him—all the good and the bad. To receive His grace and His heart. How He yearns for us to let all the distractions go until we are completed in His Presence.
And how often we aren’t willing.
How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!
—Matthew 23:37
In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and confidence shall be your strength.
—Isaiah 30:15
