A prayer for a tired soul

Lord we come to you today needing rest. We acknowledge that your yoke is easy and your burden is light. Sometimes we put more on ourselves than we can handle. We hold on to baggage we were never intended to carry. Help us to trust in you! Help us to release the burdens and sins that so easily entangle. Help us to bear the fruits of your spirit. Let our lives reflect our faith in you. You have said that you can do powerful things with faith as small as a mustard seed. I am sorry Lord that sometimes that is all the faith we have. Let us rest in your arms today, because rest is the activity of faith. Let us be renewed through your words, and the meditations of our souls. Let the palpitations of our hearts be in harmony with yours. Let us not blend into the crowd but be set apart by your work. Most of all Lord let it be known that the difference is You. It is your power in our lives. The light is from you. Cover our imperfections with your love. Help us to forgive as you have forgiven us. In Jesus name Amen.
