Rest

I am weary. physically. emotionally. spiritually.
physically - I am getting between 2-4 hours of sleep a night and have for almost 2 weeks.  I can't sleep.  I crawl into bed exhausted and my mind keeps going and going and going.  My mantra at these times is usually to breath in "Jes-" and breath out "-sus" and before I am really aware of it - I am asleep.
Emotionally - I'm a mess right now.
spiritually - I am tired of wrestling. fighting, arguing. weeping. gnashing of teeth. cussing.

I want rest.  I want to sleep dreamless sleep.  I want to wake up on the otherside of this journey - refreshed.

So I searched for what God says to us who are weary (NIV):
Ps 119:28 My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word.
Ps 25:25 Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.
Is 40:29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Is 40:31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not growweary, they will walk and not be faint.
Jer 31:25 I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint
Matt 11:28 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

then I searched for 'rest' as in sleep, restoration - again NIV. but if you have another version that you really like, please let me know.  I just tend to stick with the familiar.
