Give your weary mind some refreshing wisdom from Proverbial Thought!
Perhaps you are struggling through something.
Maybe you have lost a loved one.
Maybe you have suffered through addiction.
Maybe you have suffered through prolonged illness.
Maybe you have received the news of disease or illness.
Maybe you deal with bullying.
Maybe you come out of abuse.
Maybe you live with depression, fear, or hatred.
As trite and cliché as it may sound, Jesus is the truest answer and ultimate Healer for all that burdens our weary souls.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30, ESV
Healing may not come immediately. Physical healing may never come in this life. But trust in the life, death, and resurrection of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, and you will find hope and peace. It may not come fully until the next life, but His resurrection proves His promises are true. We may suffer now, but we have the promise of eternal rest and peace.
as dawn breaks
on the weary soul
as dawn breaks on the weary soul
awakening the stillness of God
what the weary traveler has sown
will be reaped in the precious blood
as new light pours over this one
and eyes are opened for the first time
those eyes see the image of the Son
and see through the power of that Christ
as dawn illuminates this person
becoming more aware of deep filth
this weary one comes undone
and gives in to the Higher Will
as dawn breaks on the weary soul
and this weary one awakens to love
and realizes it is okay to let go
it is finally known that God is more than enough
