It is easy to get distracted in our world. Busyness is a modern illness from which many of us suffer. Rest is its opposite and one of the things the Lord came to offer. We tend to get caught up in the false belief that we prove our worth through what we do, whether it’s “doing” for our family, for ourselves, or even for God. In this doing mode, we often become physically, mentally and spiritually tired. Jesus is the only one who can give rest to our souls. If your soul is in turmoil, tired, exhausted and heavy laden, remember that Jesus came to give you rest. You will not find rest when you get married, when your kids are grown, or when your bank account gets bigger. You need to put your burdens in Jesus’ hands.
