A Time to be Renewed

The great teacher Aesop once said, "If you keep a bow always bent, it will break eventually; but if you let it go slack, it will be more fit for use when you want it." An even greater Teacher said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Life with God includes time to rest and be renewed: Jesus not only teaches us what rest truly is, he offers us that real rest in himself!
