Finding Rest in God

🌿 "Rest isn’t something you earn—it’s a gift God freely offers."

Episode Overview

How’s your heart today? If you’re feeling overwhelmed or worn out, you’re not alone. In today’s episode of The Daily Crumb, we explore what it means to find true rest in God.

Jesus extends a beautiful invitation in Matthew 11:28—“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” But this rest isn’t just about slowing down—it’s about trusting God with your burdens and allowing Him to refresh your soul.

Through prayer, time in His Word, and surrendering control, we can experience the renewal and peace that only God provides. Rest isn’t escaping life’s challenges; it’s finding strength in the middle of them.

Reflection Questions

1. What burdens are you carrying today that you need to lay at God’s feet?
2. How can you create space in your day to pause and rest in His presence?
3. What does trusting God with your challenges look like for you right now?

Practical Next Steps

1. Take a Rest Break: Schedule 10 minutes today to unplug, pray, and focus on God’s promises.
2. Memorize a Verse: Write Matthew 11:28 on a note card and keep it nearby as a reminder of God’s rest.
3. Let Go of One Thing: Identify one worry or task that’s weighing you down, and ask God to carry it for you.
