Rest.
That is a luxury I don't seem to have these days with four busy kids. I would love a day or even a few hours in a quiet house by myself reading a book. My soul longs for rest.
In Matthew chapter 11 we hear Jesus say; “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
When I initially read this scripture all I could see and think about was the word rest and what rest looks like to me. But the more I study it, the more I realize that Jesus isn't inviting us to come unto Him and sit around in a quiet house by ourselves. Jesus is inviting us to find rest with Him. Not necessarily a rest from our work, but He promises rest during our work because He is there helping us through the hard things. When we invite Him into our lives and into our work and into our trials, He will make them all lighter. He will make them easier. He will give us rest.
So even during the crazy days of motherhood when my youngest son is chasing his older brother and screaming because he wants his toy back, and my older two kids are fighting over who gets to sit where on the couch, and I open the fridge and realize we're out of milk; I can still feel peace and rest from knowing that the Lord is there with me and it will all be OK.
