God, I'm Weary
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” ~Matthew 11:28-30 You, yes you. The days are long, the sky is cloudy and dreary, the winter doesn’t seem to end. Your to-do list is high. There always seems to be more. There always seems to be things you mean to do, but never get to it. You’ve disappointed other people. Other people have disappointed you. Maybe you’ve even disappointed yourself…. You ask yourself, “What am I doing?” “Why?” “Is there a purpose?” You feel stuck. You’re not good enough. Can I remind you? You are enough. You are worth it. Not because some chocolate ad tells you that you “deserve” to buy their product (Yes, chocolate company, we know we can give you our money.) (Although if you need some Dove chocolate on a dreary day… seriously go get some. You have my blessing.)
