“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light” (Matthew 11:28-30 NIV).
It’s hard to think of another time during the year when our lives are more rushed than the holidays. We hit the holiday parties, visit the relatives, buy gifts, and basically run ourselves ragged.
We may sing about “Peace on Earth” during the Christmas season, but most of us aren’t experiencing it.
So what’s the antidote? A night out? A relaxing trip to the beach? A week of sleep?
Those activities might refresh your body, but they’ll hardly restore your soul.
When we’re empty inside, our culture tells us we need more. We need to do more, go more, and be more.
Jesus says something different.
The antidote to our overloaded soul isn’t a time-management program. It’s not a philosophy. It’s not a plan. It’s a person. It’s Jesus.
