  <itunes:subtitle>This episode of 2 Minute Disciple explores Matthew 11:25–30, where Jesus delivers one of the most beloved invitations in the Gospels — come to Me, all who are weary, and I will give you rest. Host Nick Oyler guides listeners through the contemplative devotional rhythm of slowing down, reading, meditating, and responding in prayer. The episode unpacks what Jesus means by His yoke — not a life without demands, but a life of demands carried alongside a gentle Master whose presence is the source of rest. The daily habit invites listeners to build one intentional, unhurried moment of rest into their day as a countercultural act of trust.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;In Episode 124 of 2 Minute Disciple, host Nick Oyler leads a contemplative devotional through Matthew 11:25–30 — one of the most tender invitations in all of Scripture. Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. This is not rest as escape or passivity — it is the deep settling of a soul that has finally stopped straining against the wrong yoke. &lt;br&gt;
🎯Through guided breathing, Scripture meditation, and a practical habit of sabbath rest, this episode invites you to identify the burden you’ve been carrying alone, bring it to Jesus, and exchange it for the easy yoke of a Master who is humble and gentle at heart.&lt;br&gt;
