Why You Feel Empty and Restless… When Everything Gets Quiet #4
from Carver Melton Hosted by Carver Melton
Matthew 11:28 is an invitation from Jesus to anyone who feels weary and burdened. He calls us to come to Him—not with our strength, but with our need—and promises a kind of rest that goes deeper than physical relief. In a world full of pressure, striving, and noise, this verse reminds us that true peace is found not in what we do, but in who we trust. --- Below is the 3 points and supporting verses: 1. We Are All Homesick That empty restless feeling that you have when your head hits the pillow at night isn't a problem that you need to solve, its a call to come home. C.S. Lewis “Mere Christianity” “If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.” 1 Peter 2:11 NIV "Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul.." 2. Home Is Spelled J-E-S-U-S Jesus has finished the work that will provide true rest in our souls and when we trust in Him we can lay in that rest. Philippians 4:6–7 "Do not be anxious about anything… and the peace of God… will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." 3. It's Time To Come Home If you have never put your faith in Jesus then now is your chance to be reconciled to God. If you have accepted Jesus but do not feel his rest, it's time to trust Him with your heart and not just your Hands. John 14:2–3 "In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also." --- Practical wisdom to help you grow, think clearly, and follow Jesus daily.
