Do You Ever Just Get Tired?
Author: Patricia Aman
We all at times grow weary of well-doing.
Men and Women both are prone to wearing themselves out by tirelessly taking care just life itself, until we no longer feel like we have an ounce left to give.
This is just one of the tactics Satan uses to try and stop us.
He tries to make us so BUSY with the nonessential things that we are too worn out for the important things.
Yes, B.U.S.Y.
I learned this sitting in a dear friends Sunday School Class. Jeff Oglesby at St. John PH Church.
Jeff’s words hit my spirit when he said, “we get to busy, “Being Under, Satan’s Yoke.”
God knows that we are often weary but know that He wants to give you His strength so that we can reflect His glory.
“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.” Galatians 6:9-10
Paul tells us to live a life pleasing to God in all that we do. Someday we will give an account for every thought, word, and action while we lived on earth.
But when things get too busy, our lives can turn into turmoil and chaos. Then we weary ourselves running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off, trying to manage life on our own. And this affects everyone around us.
We start being irritated with just the little things that would usually not matter at all.
And I promise you that you will reap what you sow during those times.
Your actions will bite you in the backside.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. Galatians 6:7
Even I had to learn the hard way that I didn’t always have the right spirit. Sometimes I would focus on things that weren’t important and it caused me hurt and heartache.
Remember when you stress over the things that Father God wants to handle for you, but we refused to let Him, is when our spirit is out of alignment.
When we spend more time with Father God and His Word it will encourage us when we feel like we are about ready to collapse and faint from well-doing with the wrong attitude.
We must remember to: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” Matthew 6:33-34
