We need the freedom to rest. Without rest, we suffer. Studies show that with too little rest, people experience fatigue and physical imbalances that result in decreased attention, poor decisions, and even speech impairment. People who take are not free to take breaks during the workday have lower productivity than those who take periodic breaks.
Christians know they need more than sleep or breaks, more than physical rest. We need spiritual rest. The only place to find that type of rest is Jesus. Jesus provides more than a pause in work or enjoyable recreation. Jesus frees us by removing our burden of sins. He cleanses our guilty consciences, and gives us the gentle new yoke of discipleship in the freedom of the gospel. He gives us the freedom to spiritually rest in Him.
Ultimatel, in Jesus, Christians find eternal rest in heaven. That’s Real and Everlasting Freedom!
