Seek When You Are Tired
Come unto me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
In the midst of life’s chaos and uncertainty, it’s easy to feel lost and overwhelmed. We search for answers in all the wrong places, seeking solace in temporary pleasures and distractions. But during our searching, there is a gentle invitation from the Savior Himself: “Seek Me, and you will find rest for your souls” (Matthew 11:29, paraphrased).
Jesus beckons us to come to Him, not just in our weariness, but in our quest for meaning and purpose. He invites us to seek Him with all our hearts, knowing that in His presence, we will find the peace and rest our souls long for.
Seeking Jesus isn’t just about finding solutions to our problems; it’s about finding intimacy with the One who created us. It’s about cultivating a relationship with the One who knows us intimately and loves us unconditionally. As we seek Him, we discover that He is the source of all wisdom, strength, and comfort.
Today, if you find yourself feeling lost or overwhelmed, take a moment to seek Jesus. Open your heart to His presence, His love, and His guidance. Start by reading your favorite scripture er, or listening to your favorite worship song, whatever you do be intentional about being in the presence of the Lord. Let Him lead you beside still waters and restore your soul. And as you seek Him with all your heart, you will find the rest and peace you’ve been searching for.
Prayer for today – Heavenly Father, thank You for the invitation to come to You when we are weary and burdened. Thank You for the promise that when we seek You, we will find rest for our souls. Help us to seek You earnestly, knowing that You are the source of all wisdom, strength, and peace. May we find solace in Your presence today and always. In Jesus’ name, amen.
