Come to Me, All Who Labor: A 60‑Second Prayer for Stress Moments
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Under deadlines and family pressure, how do we actually come to Jesus for rest? In this episode, Mother Theoliptie shares how she traded the world’s heavy yoke for Christ’s easy yoke, and Fr. Armia (Jeremiah) offers practical pastoral helps for the heavy‑laden. We finish with a 60‑second prayer you can pray in the exact moment stress hits.
Scripture: Matthew 11:28–30.
Practice this week: the 1‑minute “Come to Me” prayer during or right after any stress spike. Note your three hardest moments and what changed.
