Matthew 11:20-30
People living in the cities of Israel did not repent, even Jesus had performed miracles in those cities. It is the proud of men.
Jesus is the way to the Lord, the secret is hidden fro the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will fond rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Most of Jesus' miracles took place in small area at the northern end of lake Galilee, around Capernaum, Chorazin and Bethsaida.
They created much excitement. But as evidence of the coming kingdom, they were meant to change people's lives, to lead to repentance.
This did not happen, as God's judgment on their stubborn disbelief was inevitable. Ir people of Tyre ad Sodom - even Sodom - had seen what they had seen, they would have been in sackcloth and ashes to show grief for their sins and their intention to change.
t was the ordinary fold who received Jesus - and he was glad. TO all who are worn down by burdens, he offers relief.
Why?
Proud men won't need Jesus, and they know the Law but they could not have the new life from Jesus.
When we have pure heart and humble mind, it is possible really know the Jesus and his word.
Come to Jesus, every one who are weary and burdened may rest in Jesus. This is the good news to everyone who come to Jesus.
How?
Be humble and do not proud in my heart, I am a sinner as others, there is a long way to the most high in my life.
