Come to Me, all you
who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened and I will cause you to
rest. I will ease and relieve and
refresh your souls. Matthew 11:28
In addition to having snack-time and playground time, I am
envious that our children get to enjoy both as well as an afternoon nap at
daycare. I have always wondered how much
more productive adults would be if they were allowed to pull out the red and
blue mats and take an hour-long power nap every day…
True rest, physical and mental, is highly underrated. God actually wants us to stop, rest, and take
a mental break for our souls as well.
It’s hard to find true peace when your mind is constantly at work,
trying to figure out what you should do about everything in your life.
The next time you are worn out from a tiring and exhausting
day, take some time to experience rest and peace by going to Christ and allowing
Him to refresh your soul. We all have
this wonderful privilege, so take advantage of resting in Jesus’ loving arms.
