This sermon explores what true rest really is—not just physical rest, but rest for our souls—and why so many of us struggle to experience it. Through Scripture, stories from the Old Testament, and practical illustrations, we learn that rest is a promise from God, trust produces rest, rest takes intentional effort, and Jesus Himself modeled a rhythm of rest. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or worn down by life’s pressures, this message is an invitation to lay down the weight, trust God more deeply, and step into the lasting rest He offers.
