Reflection
Jesus speaks directly to the places in our lives where we are exhausted, overwhelmed, and carrying more than we were meant to carry. He does not ask us to hide our weariness or pretend that everything is fine. Instead, He invites us to come to Him exactly as we are and to find rest in His presence. His invitation is not simply a break from our responsibilities, but an opportunity to recover the peace, strength, and perspective that we can lose when life becomes overwhelming.
