How to Find True Rest – Even in Our Busy Lives

How to Find True Rest – Even in Our Busy Lives

Summer is an ideal season to Find Rest

I’ve been thinking about launching an online experience like this for some time, and let’s face it: With school breaks, family vacations, and lighter church programming, summer can be a tricky time to stay connected with our friend groups and God’s word.

And that’s what makes summer the perfect time to keep up with light devotional readings and reflections while digging deep once a week into God’s promises. Promises like:

Come to me, all of 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 11:28-29 NLT)

Do you see the assurance in the above passage? There is a way to find rest! It’s by taking a yoke upon us that was meant to fit!

 

The result may not always be rest in our bodies (with the many demands that come with life today) but it will be rest in our souls. We can experience great peace even in a very busy life – and even amid the storms.
