Matt 11:28-30, “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.” Overcoming restlessness always begins with Jesus. He is the Way, the truth, and the life. He knows the right direction when we are wandering aimlessly in our own wilderness. He is the personified truth, and His Spirit will guide us into all truth (John 16:13). When we are hurt, tired, worn out, oppressed, sick or discouraged, He is THE life – not just any life. In fact, He has promised His life in abundance. (John10:10). This promise included an eternal home and eternal life, but it also entails a different quality of life here. This promise included an eternal home and eternal life, a hope for the resurrection. It also entails burden bearing in this life.
