You selected: Exhausted

You are tired in a way sleep has not fixed. Jesus does not meet exhaustion with a longer list — He meets it with rest.

Featured Scripture

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.

Matthew 11:28-30, KJV

Truth to hold onto

Rest is not a reward you earn after everything is finished. It is something Christ gives to those still carrying the load. His yoke is not another weight; it is the exchange of yours for His.

Isaiah 40:29, KJV

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul.

Psalm 23:2-3, KJV

A short prayer

Jesus, I am worn out. I come to You without pretending to be strong. Give me rest in my soul, not just my body. Show me what I was never meant to carry, and take it from my hands. Amen.

What am I carrying that God never asked me to carry?
