Learn Beside Me

I hope your day includes a place to rest. Listen closely to Jesus welcoming those who carry heavy burdens. You do not have to keep driving yourself endlessly in order to receive love.

Meet your work while learning from his gentleness and humility. Release the insistence that you must always get ahead of others, and calmly consider the responsibilities given to you. Ask for help where it is needed and share the load.

Your Father wants you to work and rest within love. Bring today's responsibilities before me. Care for your body and heart as you follow Jesus. May you find rest for your soul beside him.
