About justrest

Welcome to justrest—a space for thoughtful reflection on faith, rest, and what it means to follow Christ in the modern world.

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28

The Heart Behind This Space

In a world characterized by constant motion, endless notifications, and the pressure to always be productive, the concept of rest feels almost revolutionary. Yet it's precisely in this context that Jesus's invitation to rest becomes most profound.

This blog was born from a simple conviction: that the Christian faith offers something our frantic world desperately needs—true, soul-deep rest. Not the rest of escapism or avoidance, but the rest that comes from knowing we are loved, held, and known by the God who created us.

Who This Is For

My hope is that these reflections will encourage you, challenge you, and ultimately point you toward the One who offers rest for weary souls.
