"So then, there is still awaiting a full and complete Sabbath-rest reserved for the [true] people of God; For he who has once entered [God's] rest also has ceased from [the weariness and pain] of human labors, just as God rested from those labors peculiarly His own" (Heb. 4:9-10).

I believe that weariness is a curse.

As sons and daughters of God, you and I are not supposed to be under the curse, as we see in Galatians 3:13: "Christ purchased our freedom [redeeming us] from the curse (doom) of the Law [and its condemnation] by [Himself] becoming a curse for us, for it is written [in the Scriptures], Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree (is crucified)."

That means that we are not supposed to be full of weariness. Instead, according to Ephesians 6:10 KJV we are supposed to..."be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might." We are supposed to have the strength and energy to do whatever we need to do in our daily lives.

That is part of our heritage as the true people of God, part of the blessing we receive by entering into God's rest.
