Heeding The Signs!

'LEARN FROM ME...AND YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS.'   MATTHEW 11:29

The signs of burnout include anger, irritable behaviour, compulsive habits, rash decisions, disillusionment, low morale, and depression. They can also include moral failure, for when thirst is not quenched the right way, it seeks relief from other sources. Isn't it strange that peeple who are capable of managing big companies and developing complex budgets, don't have the sense to know when they need a break or how to use their resources without depleting them?

If you're wise, you won't just put appointments on your calendar, you'll schedule downtime too. WeII-timed rest restores your energy and maintains your abilities, so that you can function at full capacity.

On the other hand, being pulled in too many directions can drain away your joy and cause you to give less than your best! Why do we keep running ourselves into the ground anyway? Are we not aware of our soul's need for rest or the telltale signs of burnout?

We're like the driver who's so concerned about where he's going and how fast he can get there that he doesn't notice that the engine's knocking, the tyres are losing air and the petrol tank’s almost empty. Then when the car breaks down he asks,  'What happened?' The answer is -he should have heeded the signs. And so should you!

Amen. 

Thank you all, today's post took an exceptional chunk of my time, and I would like to thank you all  for reading and exploring your Bible with me. I thank God for your complete sense of loyalty and trust in Jesus. And I hope you get to have a deep understanding of the scriptures as you tag along with us here.
