Reflection:
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" Matthew 11:28 ESV
Rest is in interesting topic for American men, we understand what rest means in terms of post workout, coming home from a long day at work, or even resting from a day with the family. But where we often miss out on this idea of rest is that as men we take on the weight of the world. We carry so much on our shoulders, work stress, wife stress, kids stress, feeling like we always have to have it together, and if ever for a moment we feel "weak" its considered a bad thing. Men aren't allowed to hurt, aren't allowed to cry, we cannot ask for help, we are just suppose to hold it all in. And that is just not correct. I believe this is a huge reason that even though we live in a great country, with great oppurtunity, and so much good to offer, suicide rates are at an all time high, depression is at an all time high, divorce, anger, brokeness is at an all time high. Because while we may all know how to relax, we do not know how to rest. What Jesus is saying in Matthew 11:28 is you don't have to walk around with such a heavy burden anymore, you don't have to carry so much crap anymore, come to me and I will give you rest. Jesus took on the cross for our sins, our shame, and all of our burden. We do not have to go through life with the weight of the world on our shoulders because Jesus already did that for us. Who the Son sets free is free indeed and I want to challenge you great men to live like it! God Bless, it was a pleasure to lead you all this morning! -Finkle
