Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Notice who this is addressed to — not the people who have it together, not the spiritually accomplished. Everyone who's tired. Everyone who's carrying something heavy. That's a wide door.
There's no fine print here, no list of requirements to meet before you're allowed to come. Just an invitation aimed squarely at exhaustion — the kind that doesn't go away with a good night's sleep because it isn't really about sleep.
If you've been operating for a long time on the assumption that rest is something you have to earn once everything is finally handled, this line challenges that. It doesn't say come once you're not tired anymore. It says come because you are.
If tired is the truest word for where you are right now, that's exactly the condition this invitation was written for.
A short video on this is coming soon — for now, read on.
