Be still, and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the heathen,
I will be exalted in the earth.
Psalm 46:10
I continue to serve the Lord, but I'm very weary right now...
I will be exalted among the heathen,
I will be exalted in the earth.
Psalm 46:10
I continue to serve the Lord, but I'm very weary right now...
I'm exhausted, and I feel drained of energy. So I am trying my best to seek quiet moments where the pace is slower, and Christ's presence is more real. Thus, I've been in the "prayer closet" more.
As a "Type A" hyperactive and oftentimes driven person, I must be careful not to become overly involved to where I lose myself in hectic church activities. I am learning, as well, that certain things can wait. Because if I am not careful, I tend to overdo it. Then come the consequences of physical and mental tiredness, and a weakened relationship with the Lord. I'll find myself drying up spiritually, which is not good or healthy.
But these days I am doing better at delegating. I've been stepping aside more in order to allow other members within the congregation to "step up to the plate," so to speak, and do what needs to be done.
The Lord's key phrase for me is "Be still."
