An invitation

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.

Jesus Christ – the Message, Matthew 11:28-30

Learning to live

in the unforced rhythms of grace

 

 

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion/the pressure of work/the stress of family life?

It seems so hard to find any real rest these days.  We rush about from one thing to another, and life never seems to stop.  It is so easy to feel burned out.

That is why I so love this invitation.

 

And I think it is an invitation to all of us.

Not just those who claim to be Christians.

Not just those who are super-spiritual and somehow above the rest of us.

This is an invitation for anyone – Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Atheist, Agnostic, or just plain not sure.

It is an invitation for anyone who is just feeling tired.

  1. Thank you. This seems to be just what I need to renew my rather drooping spirit. Please do keep me posted.
    Blessings on all you do.
