SPEAKER_00: Let's start today by reading Scripture.
SPEAKER_00: Matthew 11 28 says, Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
SPEAKER_00: Weariness can show up quietly in your thoughts, your body, your spirit.
SPEAKER_00: You may not even realize how heavy things have become until you finally slow down.
SPEAKER_00: But Jesus sees that weight and he doesn't ask you to carry it longer than you have to.
SPEAKER_00: He invites you to come to him just as you are.
SPEAKER_00: Not fixed, not strong, just willing.
SPEAKER_00: Take 20 seconds and thank Jesus for inviting you into rest.
SPEAKER_00: Not because we earned it, but because he loves you.
SPEAKER_00: Now take sixty seconds and tell Jesus honestly where you feel tired, physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
SPEAKER_00: Don't filter it or minimize it.
SPEAKER_00: Ask him to meet you right in that place and carry what you've been holding.
SPEAKER_00: Invite him to exchange your heaviness for his rest and remind yourself that you are not alone.
SPEAKER_00: How does that make you feel like you know someone who is struggling in this area of weariness?
SPEAKER_00: Let's ask Jesus to meet them with rest today.
SPEAKER_00: Take thirty seconds and pray for them by name.
SPEAKER_00: We come to you and receive your rest.
SPEAKER_00: Amen.
