Peace

Rest for the Soul

"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28

Reflection

That invitation has no fine print. Tired? Come. Jesus does not ask you to improve before drawing near.

Prayer

Jesus, I come to You with my tiredness. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What makes you tired inside?
  2. Does Jesus ask us to get better before coming to Him?
  3. How can you come to Jesus today?

5-minute activity

Make a cozy rest corner with pillows and a blanket. Lie down together for five quiet minutes and take turns telling Jesus what makes you tired. Read Matthew 11:28-30.
