take a real rest...

Today at church we had a great teaching about taking a rest!... it got me thinking - it is one of the first concepts God taught his creation: He stepped back from His work, looked over everything He had made and said it was very good - and than He took a rest... ! Did God need to rest? I don't think so. But He set an example for us.
Watching animals, I think they got it!  We humans struggle a bit more...

Jesus took time out on a regular basis! Even - or because - there where so many needs to meet.
He didn't burn out.  He knew how to live a balanced life!
We can learn from him - I love this verse of the bible, especially in 'the message' translation.
It is from Matthew 11.28-30, and it is one of my favorites. I like to add his signature...

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.         
                                                   Love, Jesus

Today, I took a real rest...
