Soul Rest

It’s not that we won’t have burdens in this life. We will. It’s that we were not meant to carry these burdens alone.

Jesus says, “Come to Me, all 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 find rest for your souls. For My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28‭-‬30 NASB2020

His words are a balm to a weighed down weary soul, “Come!” Not condemnation or scorn. His word, “Come” is an invitation. He’s inviting us. He’s inviting you. He’s inviting me, “Come!”

This world is harsh and fast-paced, waiting to chew us up. Jesus tells us He is the opposite, “I am gentle and humble in heart. In me you will find rest for your souls.” This world offers a lot of sleep aids for the body, but only Jesus offers rest for our soul.

Woman of God hear Jesus’ invitation today, “Come, 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 find rest for your souls.”
