Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord you God is with you wherever you go. (Joshua 1:9)

The call to enter Christ's rest is not a call to stop work, it is a call to come out from under the burden of sin and death. It is a call to come out from under one yoke and burden and to take another. Jesus invites us to take His yoke that is easy. In order to work well we must learn how to rest well.

We must be laborers willing to lay down our lives, willing to embrace the cross, willing to be joyfully used up by God for the work of HIs Kingdom and the glory of His name.
