Happy Labor Day!
We hope you have a wonderful time of rest! Labor day is a wonderful time to show and feel appreciation for all the ways we all work together as a community. It is also a wonderful time to rest from that work to reflect. Hoping that this Labor Day is a wonderful time to do just that!
We are also reminded that there is another type of rest we need that goes much deeper.
A rest for our souls.
Matthew 11:28-30 (ESV) tells us about this type of rest!
28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
