" Come unto me." - Matthew 11:28

Here is an invitation. Some one invites you. Some one has thrown open his doors to you. The words convey a privilege - you have it now - the privilege of going to him. No difficulties exist with him. If you have a will to go, you may go. Ponder this fact, - whatever you do, wherever you go, you are nevertheless among the invited.

He that invites you has cast many angels out of his presence because they were not worthy. The seraphim, of such exceeding might and majesty, are overwhelmed at his glory. His face shineth as the sun in its strength. John, that holy evangelist, fell at his feet as one dead. Yet he invites you - has a place for you - spreads a feast for you.

He died upon the cross that you might have this invitation. And if you would know what that exceeding great cry was with which he gave up the ghost, know that it was this, " Come unto me! It is finished! thou mayest come!"

How many of his providences were simply echoes of this cry. He bereft thee of dear friends; deprived thee of health; stripped thee of wealth; baffled thee in thy schemes; destroyed the world’s illusions; that thou might hear this invitation, and come unto him.

Come then at once. Come in earnest. Come in faith.
