You shall find rest. ... For My burden is light. Matthew 11:30

In Scotland many years ago, school children were allowed to miss classes to help farmers bring in the potato harvest.

Though it was a holiday from school lessons, it was hard work in the fields. Many times during the day, the children got so tired they felt like quitting. But most didn't. At night, they went right to bed and next morning they were ready for another hard day's work.

Missionary service is hard work. But God gives enough strength for each of us to do what He calls us to do.

Prayer: Father, help me to work for You in all that I do. Amen.
