![]() "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28 (NIV) What a promise this is to us! We just need to go to our Lord and He will give us rest. How often during the day I long for rest. Rest from my busy life, rest from the problems that arise in caring for a husband and children, rest from all the expectations of others that engulf me. Sometimes, I am just overwhelmed. I am weary, I am heavy-laden and I need rest. That's when I hear my Savior's voice saying, "Come to Me." If I listen, if I obey, if I deliberately set aside all my cares and go to Him, I do find rest and refreshing. I can go on to perform all the tasks that need to be done...in His strength. It is amazing what can be accomplished in His strength! How thankful I am for a Savior who cares about me and doesn't want me to go through life in a frenzy. He wants me to be at peace and I can only do that with Him at my side. Father, help me to remember to seek out your Son, each day, that I may know rest. Thank you for providing Jesus to be my companion on this journey home. Thank you for the strength that He provides in carrying my burdens for me. Truly you have blessed me with a special friend. Let me never lose sight of Him and all He is to me. Amen I Came To Jesus I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto me and rest: Thy load of care thou mayst lay down And be no more distressed." I came to Jesus as I was, Weary, and worn and sad, I Found in him a resting place, And he hath made me glad. I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Behold, I freely give The living water; thirsty one Stoop down, and drink, and live!" I came to Jesus and I drank Of that life giving stream; My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and now I live in him. I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world’s Light; Look unto me, thy morn shall rise And all thy day be bright." I looked and saw my star of hope, My Sun of Righteousness. O! soon ‘twil rise and fill the earth, And all the nations bless. Quiet Waters
