Verse of the day: Matthew 11:28

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

Matthew 11:28

Reflection

Jesus didn't invite the strong and organized. He invited the tired and overloaded. Rest here isn't a reward for finishing; it's where the work of the soul begins.

Prayer

Jesus, I bring you what's heavy today. Teach me to rest in you before I try to fix everything. Amen.

In context · Matthew 11:26–30

Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight. All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
