Better, Faster, Stronger FaithSample
What happens when we get tired?
If you've ever reached peak exhaustion, you get the feeling of you just cant keep going on.
When we're tired - we lose focus! We're less effective and we stop because we forget why we're putting ourselves through this.
This can be the same for our lives, things can be coming from left, right and centre at you…and you're tired!
School assignments are starting to pile up, you're home all the time so you've got to help with the chores and on top of that you've got to baby-sit the little brother or sister... and that's not even emotional!
Friends go to you for support, you’ve got family drama, you’ve got your own emotions, dreams, anxious thoughts and worries.
What do we do, when life get's too much?
We need to find a place and space of REAL rest.
Jesus had an encounter with a woman who was TIRED. We're talking emotionally tired, she had burned out all her friendships and pushed loved ones away. In search for love, she gave herself to anyone who would take it. This resulted in multiple failed relationships and bouncing between whomever. Imagine the emotional fatigue in her life!
Regular rest isn't enough!
To rest physically, emotionally and spiritually we need to fill ourselves up with something that will give us the right rest we need to keep going in life! The enemy can throw anything at you in your life; but you are so well rested and so full of God's presence that you've got the stamina to always:
Be an example
Disciple those around you
Stand firm in prayer
Follow where the Holy Spirit is leading you
Go to Jesus for your rest - no matter what you're facing
