MATTHEW 11 – GOT REST?
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
Rest is a place of comfort, a place of security. It’s where the weary soul can find deep satisfaction. It’s where the heavy heart can find true peace.
Because there is no resting place in this world for the burdened, Jesus petitions to the masses, “Come to me… all of you who are weary”! The pursuit of happiness isn’t found in this world’s shallow treasures, nor the temporary passions of the flesh. No – it’s found in the heart of God.
And in His heart, there is true rest…Â Rest from the many expectations of this world. Rest from the demands of beauty and brilliance. Rest from all the garb this world claims you must become.
——This rest is discovered in the person of Christ who declares with absolute certainty, “I WILL GIVE YOU REST!
CHALLENGE
O weary soul, do you long to find that place where you can lye next to still waters? Where the river flows the stillness of God? My friend, true rest can only be found in the Lord Jesus. Have you found it? If not, Jesus is waiting.
