"Give You Rest"
"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest," he said.
Come. Don't you love it? It is an invitation. I have a standing invitation to come to my Savior.
...to Me. Christ alone.
...all who. Each one of us.
...are weary and burdened. I have a ton of things on my mind - some trivial... what to fix for dinner? what book should I order next? what color clothes should I wash next? Some not so trivial... (sigh)
...and I will give you rest. Rest. I love even the sound of that word, let alone the concept. His offer to step into our circumstances, to guide us. To walk through our burdens carrying us.
So, I take a deep breath, and just go to Him...He meets me right here. He gives me rest.
My little guy found rest.
