Christmas Devotionals 2022 #6 "Find Rest in Christ"

 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,

whose forms are bending low,

who toil along the climbing way

with painful steps and slow,

look now! for glad and golden hours

come swiftly on the wing.

O rest beside the weary road,

and hear the angels sing!

Edmund Sears

Rest. It’s something we are not very good at. The press of earthly life keeps us often in a frenzy of trying to please many on multiple fronts and hold many things together! Christmas should be the time when we pause for much needed rest in our minds and bodies, but somehow even during this wonderful time we are frantic! Seek to find a restful spirit this Christmas and “be diligent to enter that rest…”(Hebrews 4:13a) which only comes in Christ.
