In Matthew 10, Jesus sent the disciples out with authority.
In Matthew 11, we find John the Baptist, the same man who prepared the way, struggling with doubts in prison.
He sends messengers asking, “Are you the One?”
Jesus responds gently:
“Go and tell John… the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed…” Matthew 11:4–5
Sometimes LIFE IN HIM means trusting even when we don’t understand the season we are in.
Then Jesus gives one of the most comforting invitations in Scripture:
“Come to me, all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
Yesterday was a mission.
Today is a rest.
Both are part of Life in Him.
Take 5 quiet minutes today. Breathe deeply and surrender one burden to Jesus.

DAY 11 – When You Don’t Understand Everything (Matthew 11)
-
Sent With Power, Rooted in Love
Matthew 9 ends with Jesus saying, “The harvest is plentiful…”
Matthew 10 begins with Him sending workers into that harvest the disciples.
He gives them authority, not to boast, but to serve.
Jesus says:
“Freely you have received, freely give.”
Yesterday we saw compassion; today we see compassion put into mission.
But Jesus also prepares them for difficulty rejection, opposition, discomfort.
Life in Him is powerful, but it is not always easy.
Still, He assures:
“Do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.”

Blogmas Idea 2025 – A Journey Through the Gospel of Matthew.
Matthew-A-Thon Announcement
Greetings on the commencement of a new month!
I extend my sincere gratitude for the continuous support over the past 11 months, expressed through views, follows, shares, and subscriptions.
I am excited to announce the beginning of Season 5 of Annual Blogmas, a 25-day event dedicated to celebrating Christmas. This year’s theme is LIFT HIM UP, and the format this year will be video-based. Each day, leading up to Christmas, I will be reading a chapter from the Gospel of Saint Matthew.
A short overview of this writer – Matthew, a disciple of our Lord Jesus Christ, called by Christ Himself from his tax collecting booth, serves as the focal point for this year’s exploration. Despite being one of the quieter apostles, Matthew’s prolific writing shines through.
Today being Day 1, I will delve into Chapter 1 and 2 at 6 pm here and on my Facebook page, as we collectively embark on this journey to LIFT HIM UP.#Matthew_a_thon #2025Blogmas #lifthimup
