James Cordrey, author, speaker, and leader of Intentional Warriors ministry, shared a message about how God's playful nature, displayed in many of Jesus' interactions with his disciples, invites us into a place of true rest and grace. James refers throughout his message to The Message version of Matthew 11:28-30 the text of which is
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
