About comfort and rest:

Matthew 11:28 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. (NIV)

We all need comfort and rest. We all get tired. We all get burned out. We all get used up. In every aspect of our physical life, we need a time of comfort and rest. In our physical world, finding real comfort and rest is difficult to do. No matter what we do, where we go, or how we attempt to find comfort and rest, our old physical problems, issues, and pains can remain with us. However, God is a being of comfort and rest. In the hands of Christ, in His hands so full of His healing and wholeness, you can find His comfort and rest. Even the smallest effort at reaching out to Christ can help you. Even the smallest desire to be His child brings His touch to your heart and life. Even the smallest prayer brings Him near. Even the smallest commitment endears Him to you. You can turn away from the cause of your discomfort and tiredness in the world. When you turn away from your discomfort and tiredness, there is someone you can turn toward who will help you find comfort and restoration. His name is Jesus.
