So many people fret about difficult situations in life. Everyday family life and work keeps people very busy and distracted. We can be overwhelmed and anxious about our future. Multi-tasking has become like second nature. Is more better though? Everyone is juggling more than they can handle, or more than they can handle well. A balanced life has an element of quietness and daily rest. Those who won’t rest from their work week and hectic schedules on a regular basis can eventually suffer from it. Weariness sets in and becomes normal. People say they are always tired. Emotional and physical health depends on proper care. Our minds and bodies are designed by God, our masterful Creator, to have one day of rest out of seven. Even the Lord rested on the seventh day after He finished creating man and the glorious heavens and earth. “On the seventh day God had finished His work of creation, so He rested from all His work.” Genesis 2:2. The Spirit of God will give us rest. When we are pulled in too many different directions, our thoughts spin around in a cycle of worry and anxiety. We become tired and weary. This causes tension in our relationships, insomnia, and disease. Jesus has a remedy for weariness. His very name is PEACE. He said, “Come to Me, all you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let Me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:18-30) We don’t need more caffeine. We need more rest in Christ, our Lord. Is your mind filled with anxious thoughts? Jesus is waiting for you to let Him be your partner for life. Give your life to Him today. Have you given Him your heavy burdens, worries and cares? Or are you fighting to maintain control of situations in your life? Bring Jesus into the picture. Surrender to Him and take His perfectly fitted yoke. Walk together in peace. Experience times of renewal and strength like refreshing rain on parched ground. In His gentle, loving way, the Lord will lead you onto the best path and revive your weary soul. Resting in Christ is the remedy for weariness.
