The Bible speaks of weariness in a spiritual sense, highlighting the need for healing and rest in Christ.
The Bible frequently addresses the condition of weariness, both physically and spiritually. In Isaiah 50:4, we see that the Lord has given Jesus the 'tongue of the learned' to speak a word in season to those who are weary. This weariness may stem from the burdens of sin, life's trials, and the struggle against iniquity. Notably, people like Job and the psalmist express their weariness in their cries for help, showing that weariness can lead one to seek God's aid. The spiritual sickness of weariness reminds believers to turn to Christ for comfort and renewal, as emphasized in Matthew 11:28, where Jesus invites the weary to come to Him for rest.
