Be At Rest
Deep soul rest comes when burdens are laid down and life is yoked to Christ, who is gentle and lowly in heart. The pursuit of significance through performance, approval, possessions, or self-reliance always creates a heavy yoke that wears the soul thin. Sabbath invites us to cease the inner murmur of self-reproach and receive grace like a child, trusting rather than performing. True freedom flows from being known and held by Christ, who forgives failure, satisfies need, and renews the inner life day by day.
