Place of Rest
Luke 9:58 (NLT)
But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head.”
Listen
Jesus desires to find a home in us. Though He had no permanent earthly place to rest during His ministry, He invites us to make our homes, workplaces, churches, relationships and communities places where His presence is welcomed and honoured. Just as Jesus could rest in the boat despite the storm around Him, our lives should create an environment where He can find comfort and peace. We can also give Him “rest” by faithfully carrying the mission He has entrusted to us—sharing the Gospel, making disciples, serving others and becoming His extension wherever He has placed us. God does not need us because He is unable to work without us; rather, He chooses to work through us. The challenge is to ask whether our lives are truly a home for Jesus and whether our obedience is helping carry the burden of His mission.

Become Weak
1 Corinthians 9:22 (AMPC)
To the weak (wanting in discernment) I have become weak (wanting in discernment) that I might win the weak and overscrupulous. I have [in short] become all things to all men, that I might by all means (at all costs and in any and every way) save some [by winning them to faith in Jesus Christ].
