Our age has produced a new malady. It is called “chronic fatigue syndrome.” There is a sense in which all of us suffer from it. If we are nothing else, we are tired.
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. [29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. [30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30
When we come to Christ, we come to One who can give us rest. We are all tired from something. Fatigue occasionally overtakes even the strongest among us. We are tired physically and mentally from the everyday struggle to make ends meet.
