Rest…!
Mat 11:28 “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Today or tonight are you just hanging on? Struggling to keep your head above the water? Exhausted?
Where can you go to actually get that relief you are looking for?
People often go on vacation and come back even more stressed and hassled because they have tried to fit in tours, highlights, events into a few packed vacation days and they’re worse after. Or perhaps you are just under a constant load everyday in your life and there seems no end to how it is going!
Jesus makes this beautiful invitation. For me even His words drop my anxiousness as I read them and take them to heart.
Jesus does not offer a prescription, nor a journey or a set of steps to do.
No, instead He says to each and every one of us to come to Him! To Him personally. He says, Come unto Me….and I will give you rest…..!
Everything He says, that is bearing down on you, your sins, your burdens, that heaviness you carry, He says bring it to Him and He will relieve you of its load, its pain, its guilt or shame.
Will you take advantage of His offer? Simply call out to Him and let Him do what only He can do – bring rest to your soul!
