Maybe it’s just me. But I think this is true for a lot of us a lot of the time. Do you need to stop, rest, and remember?
Women are tired. Women struggle. We carry loads of responsibility – work and school assignments, caretaking of children and aging parents, ministry at church and beyond. With these responsibilities come great joy and privilege, but…

We forget…
We forget…our God-designed and designated meaning and mission.
We forget… how the Bible explains our compulsive need for control and the reason we struggle with shame.

Stop. Rest. Remember.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30
