I will give you rest

"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
Matthew 11:28-30 (The Message)

Seems simple, doesn't it? Tired? Worn out? Go to God. Get away with Him and you will recover. He will show you how to really rest. Take a walk with Him, work along side Him, and watch how He does things. Receive the grace that is flowing down without force. He doesn't plan on passing over anything too heavy to you. He's keeps pretty good company and with Him you'll learn some freedom and definitely feel a whole lot lighter.

I like it. Maybe I should try it!

Blessings.
