Feeling worn out? Here's what Jesus says about rest. In this episode, I’m diving into Matthew 11:28-30 and unpacking what it means to be “heavy laden” - not just with burdens, but even with good fruit. I share a personal story about a busy season that left me physically and emotionally exhausted, and how the Holy Spirit used the image of a fruit-laden tree to reveal a fresh perspective on rest. We’ll explore the wisdom of Proverbs 8 and the words of Jesus in John 15, discovering three practical truths about abiding in Him. If you’ve been pouring out, producing, and pushing through - this episode is an invitation to return to your source and find true, soul-deep rest.
