Read

“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.”
Matthew 11:28 · World English Bible

Jesus speaks to people who are already carrying something. Begin with what is actually here today: a feeling, a question, a hope, or a task still on your mind. Give it a name if you can. Read the invitation again slowly and leave a little time after the last word.

Pray

God, here I am. You know the parts of this day I can name and the parts I can’t yet put into words. Meet me here. Help me receive your care and take one small step with you today. Amen.

Reflect

What is one thing I want to bring to God today?

One thing to try

Choose one ordinary moment today, such as before you open your messages, to pause and say, “God, here I am.”
