Jesus demonstrated the importance of rest all through the Bible. Why, then, do we have so many problems resting at Christmastime?

Resting in the Lord is not only our best course of action, but also our only one. Those who belong to Christ are called to rest, not in self or in the world, but in Him!
Even in the chaos of burned-out bulbs and endless to-do lists, Jesus offers us rest. Stop, breathe, and sit with Him—peace is found in His presence.
Why do we stress ourselves out by trying to do everything ourselves? Especially when there is Someone who invites us to surrender it to Him so He can give us rest?
We weren’t meant to carry our burdens. We were meant to surrender, to lean in to God, to let Him carry us through! Have you tried it lately?
God never sleeps or gets tired. He is always on the job. And since we can be sure God is working on our issues, we can go take a nap!
God didn’t put us on Earth to rush about doing needless things., He put us here to love one another, to be His hands and feet!
