Is There Rest for the Weary?

 Brandon Clements, pastor of Midtown Fellowship in Columbia, S.C., says there is. I love the analogy he uses in his post "Christian, Why You Are Exhausted," which he, in turn, borrowed from a book by Chip and Dan Heath.* They say  the mind (or will) is a rider on an elephant (the emotions). Are you having trouble controlling your elephant?  Read on! You'll find hope, and yes, rest!
