Imagine carrying a heavy load, feeling tired and worn out, but then someone gently helps you lift it, making it easier to bear. That’s what Jesus offers us! Matthew 11:29 tells us that when we come to Him, He gives us rest for our souls. Jesus doesn’t burden us with impossible expectations—He invites us to learn from Him and rest in His care.

Jesus is gentle and humble, and when we follow His example, we find peace. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, but Jesus is there to help us carry the load. When we trust Him and follow His guidance, He lightens our burdens and fills our hearts with rest and joy.

Let’s take time each day to rest in Jesus, knowing that He is there to carry us, guide us, and refresh our souls. When we trust in His gentle care, we experience true peace.

Restful Yoke Craft:

Create a yoke-shaped craft with “Find Rest in Jesus” written on a single-line banner. On each side of the yoke, write words like “Peace,” “Trust,” and “Rest.” Decorate it with bright colors and peaceful symbols like hearts and clouds as a reminder that Jesus offers us rest.

Time For A Prayer:

Dear Jesus, thank You for inviting us to find rest in You. Help us to trust in Your gentle care and to follow Your example of humility and peace. Teach us to rest in Your love every day. Amen.

Keep resting in Jesus, Faith Force Rest Seekers! Until our next Divine Dispatch, remember that Jesus offers us peace and rest for our souls. Let’s trust in His gentle care and find true rest every day!
