Matthew 11:28-29  Come unto Me, all you who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest for your souls. 

Many of us are exhausted from working, and we need a break to be restored and revitalized. Yet, ironically, more often than not, when we return from a vacation we don’t feel rejuvenated or rested. But there is a rest that Jesus alone can give.

Jesus said, “Come unto me…”

Our relationship with Jesus contains a promise of rest. His invitation is to an intimate relationship which is restful and truly empowering. His joy will be our strength, and serving Him will not make us weary or worn out, but actually it will revitalize us IF we do it with His help, His power and through His Spirit.
