"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
(Matthew 11:28)

“You who are weary and burdened…” Could anyone be exempt? We’re likely all carrying too much, trying to do too much, and laboring under a heavy yoke of our own making. Most of us even come home from vacation exhausted. What has happened to rest? Sabbath as a spiritual discipline has all but disappeared. It needs to be reclaimed.
The One who is gentle and humble in heart offers us an easy yoke and rest for our weary souls. How will we respond?
