A Real Rest
Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.

To the Center
“The heart is hopelessly dark and deceitful,

I get to the root of things.
I treat them as they really are,
not as they pretend to be.”
