Scripture  

Matthew 11:28 (NRSVUE)  

“Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens,  

and I will give you rest.”

Refrain  

Rest is a sacred act of trust.

Quote  

Wayne Muller  

“In the relentless busyness of modern life,  

we have lost the rhythm between work and rest.  

All life requires a rhythm of rest.  

There is rhythm in our waking and sleeping,  

there is rhythm in the way day follows night and night follows day.

We have forgotten the Sabbath,  

the day of rest,  

the gift of sacred stillness.  

It is not a reward for finishing.  

It is a gift given,  

whether we’ve finished or not.”
