Devotional
There is a particular kind of tiredness that sleep cannot touch — the weariness of carrying things too heavy for one heart.
There is a particular kind of tiredness that sleep cannot touch — the weariness of carrying things too heavy for one heart. Worry. Guilt. Grief. The quiet ache of feeling that you must hold it all together, alone.
To exactly that person, Jesus says seven of the most welcome words ever spoken: "Come to Me, all you who are weary." (Matthew 11:28) Notice He does not say "come once you've sorted yourself out." He says come — now, as you are, burden and all.
Rest is not a reward He withholds until we've earned it. It is a gift He presses into tired hands. Whatever you are carrying today, you may set it down with Him. That is not weakness; it is wisdom.
