Livia - Matthew 11:28

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28 NIV)

What a beautiful invitation! Jesus looks into the eyes of tired moms, weary dads and says "I will give you rest. ". It does take action on our part to "come" .
To move out of our situation and to him.  Verse 29 says "take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls."

On that day they came to him.  They brought him their burdens of their existence and he gave them not religion, not doctrine, not systems, but rest.
