VERSE OF THE WEEK
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. – Matthew 11:28
Come Away
Most people have experienced periods of sheer exhaustion in their lives. Perhaps it was from a work project that took more hours than anticipated. Or maybe it was the effort of birthing a baby who was resistant to entering the world. Or it might have been from an illness that seemed to worsen in spite of the doctor’s prescription or treatment program. God understands. Jesus experienced exhaustion as well. His example is one for you to follow. He urges you to come to Him before you “come apart!“ He wants you to find true rest, a time alone to commune with Him. The Lord wants you to come away and be with Him so that He can mend your spirit and soul. Whether you pray, read your Bible, or are simply still in His presence, come to Him and let Him give you peace and rest.
