A Promise for the Weary (i.e. Me)

When there is more laundry to wash, dry, fold, and put away than you can do in a day...

When there are more dirty dishes on the table, covering the counter, and filling your sink than can fit in the dishwasher tonight...

When the toys have become too numerous, and too downstairs-when-they-should-be-up and upstairs-when-they-should-be-down...

When the dust has congregated into not only bunnies, but gated communities, and athletic teams competing in events such as the Dust Bowl...

When the piles, and the shoes, and the bags, and the life just

wear

you

out...

wear his clean robes,
shine in his righteousness,
feast at his table,
live at his feet,
know from dust you were created, and in his image you were made,
thank him for your blessings,
be fleet of foot with the message of redemption and hope,
carry love and grace around, and give them away frequently,
and

live life because, weary one, he will give you rest.
