Have you ever been so tired you couldn't even sleep? The stress of the day has worn you down so much that you can't wait to hit the sack, only to discover your mind is still churning. I want to encourage you to find a moment in the each day to simply rest in Jesus. The best time may be right in the middle of the most stressful time. "Come to me," Jesus says, "all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls." It seems that busyness is a perceived as a virtue in our present culture. But activity doesn’t necessarily produce positive results. Remember the most active chicken in the barnyard is the one who just had its head chopped off. So ask God to settle your spirit, seek His will, and then rest in it. You will discover your worship takes on a much deeper meaning.
