Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
~Matthew 11:28
Unrest is one great characteristic of the world. Hurry, vexation, failure, disappointments, stare us in the face on every side. But here is hope. There is an ark of refuge for the weary, as truly as there was for Noah's dove. There is rest in Christ, rest of conscience, and rest of heart, rest built on pardon of all sin, rest flowing from peace with God.
~J. C. Ryle, Expository Thoughts on the Gospel, Matthew
