Verse of the day june 16, 2025 — Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
Devotional Thought For Today
You weren’t created to carry the weight of the world.
That was never your job — it was always His.
Jesus doesn’t just see your weariness today… He feels it. He knows what it’s like to walk this broken world, to be misunderstood, mistreated, pushed to your limit. That’s why His invitation in Matthew 11:28 isn’t a demand — it’s a whisper of grace:
“Come to Me.”
Not when you have it all together.
Not after you’ve fixed the mess.
Not once you’ve proven you’re worthy.
Right now — tired, trembling, worn thin — come.
Some of you are carrying invisible weights. You smile in public but cry in private. You encourage others while your own soul is unraveling. You’re doing all the right things, but you’re running on empty.
Jesus says, That’s enough. Give it to Me.
Not just the problem — the pressure.
Not just the guilt — the grind.
Let Him take the burden off your back and replace it with peace in your heart. The rest He offers isn’t just sleep — it’s soul-deep stillness, the kind that says, “I’m held. I’m known. I’m safe.”
So if you’re exhausted, don’t just keep going.
Don’t just push through.
Come. Sit at His feet. Cry if you need to. Exhale.
Because the God who holds galaxies… still wants to hold you.
Prayer for June 16, 2025
Jesus,
I’m tired. Not just physically — deep in my soul. I’ve tried to carry it all, but I can’t anymore. I need Your rest. I lay down the burdens, the pressure, the fear — and I come to You. Teach my heart to breathe again. Be my refuge. Let Your peace quiet every storm inside me.
In Your name, Amen.
