Rest for the soul

SUMMARY: Fatigue is a common problem that can often be more than just physical. It can accumulate day after day and make us feel like we cannot go on. This type of fatigue can affect anyone regardless of where they live or their economic situation. Jesus' words offer comfort to those who are tired and burdened, promising rest and peace for our souls. Unitiging with Christ can make life easier and more restful.

A great contemporary human problem is fatigue. "How tired or tired I am" many people repeat every day. Others simply say: "I can't take it anymore" and there is another phrase that we hear frequently: "That goes, like this, no one can." All these expressions denote that whoever says them is on the verge of your forces. The most serious fatigue is not physical. No matter how exhausted a person is, a night's sleep, or sometimes just a good bath make us feel like new. There is another fatigue that does not go away so easily. It accumulates day after day and when we wake up each morning it seems that we have before us an inaccessible mountain, impossible to climb. Have you ever felt like this?

Such fatigue has the characteristic of annihilating our desire to live. And it often achieves this regardless of our physical, economic or where we live. People get tired - although sometimes we are used to thinking that they don't - in all parts of the world. Whether you live in Havana, New York, Buenos Aires or any city in Europe, the fatigue that destroys our spirits and paralyzes us is universal. It is caused by recurring situations that, whether family, social or personal, not only escape our control, but also become inseparable companions of our lives.
