Les chrétiens peuvent facilement avoir l’impression que Jésus est perpétuellement déçu et frustré par leur marche chrétienne, voire qu’il est même sur le point de les abandonner. Ils savent ce que Jésus a fait pour eux, mais ils ont souvent une connaissance superficielle de sa personne. Quels sont les sentiments qui l’animent lorsqu’il considère les péchés et les échecs de son peuple ?

In Matthew 11, Jesus describes Himself as “meek and lowly in heart,” longing for His people to find rest in Him. This book draws on His words, delving into Bible passages that speak of Christ’s affection for sinners to encourage weary and faltering believers on their journey toward heaven.
