Stirred By The Scriptures

“Come to me, you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”  Those are the words of Jesus in Matthew 11:28.  I wonder how many of us would fit his description of being weary and burdened?  Life can be exhausting and leave us longing for rest, a rest that includes not only physical but an inner rest of heart.  It is a rest that can be found when I learn to trust the Father for all that my life needs.  The struggle I have is that I look everywhere else for relief and all along it could be found in resting in him.
