When you say: "I am too tired."
God Says: "I will give you rest."
I'm so tired.
I know that feeling, don't worry.
I've been there too: the day you just want to curl up in a ball and cry yourself to sleep. You know what I'm talking about, right?
How many times have you woken up from a nightmare and then had to go to work or school? How many times have you been so tired that all you can do is lie in bed for hours, staring at the ceiling, wishing for something… anything… else?
Yeah, me too. But then I realized something: life is worth living! And Jesus is here for us when we need him most—even when we're too tired to ask for help.
He says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened…" (Matthew 11:28). And what does he say next? "I will give you rest."
God knows how hard it is sometimes—and he wants us to know that he's here for us when our minds are full of worries and our bodies are full of exhaustion. He's ready to lift our load if we'll let him take control of our lives—and he'll always make sure that his burden is light enough for us.
Matthew 11: 28-30
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.30For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
