Rest For The Weary
Rest for the Weary
Matthew 11:28-30
Jesus' invitation to the weary and burdened echoes God's care for Elijah in the wilderness.
This passage reminds us that true rest isn't found in escape or isolation, but in coming to Jesus. His yoke is easy and His burden is light not because He removes all challenges, but because He bears the weight with us.
Today, consciously bring your burdens to Christ. Visualize yourself laying them at His feet. What would it look like to take on His yoke instead?
Practice moment-by-moment reliance on God's strength, remembering that in your weakness, His power is made perfect. Let this be a day of exchanging your weariness for His peace.
