"Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28
The word REST is important to know.
Jesus gives us anapauo {an-ap-ow'-o}
Strong's Concordance says it means "to cause or permit one to cease from any movement or labour in order to recover and collect his strength." I think that's what a lot of Christians need to do - collect their strength. I think one of the most frequent words used by Christians is "busy." Always going about with choir, social meetings, studies, holidays...and very little time for jesus Himself. We need a rest. We need aanapauo - a time to recover our strangth.
Students...remember anapauo for the quiz today and you'll get extra credit. And then rest a bit.
