Prayer for Rest and Renewal

God of Sabbath Rest,

I am weary and heavy-laden, and I come to You for rest. Help me to stop striving and simply be in Your presence. Teach me to rest not out of laziness, but out of trust in Your provision and care.

Renew my energy, refresh my spirit, and restore my joy. Help me to find the balance between work and rest, activity and stillness, doing and being.

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

I rest in You, Amen.
