Sometimes burnout is not from doing too little. It is from trying too hard to be enough.
There was a season when I pushed myself to stay strong, productive, and faithful. On the outside it looked committed. On the inside it felt empty.
I eventually realized I was not driven by pride. I was driven by fear. Fear of falling short. Fear that I was not doing enough for God. So I stayed busy proving myself instead of resting in Him.
Here is what changed everything for me. God’s presence is not a reward for performance. It is a gift. And when we strive to earn what has already been given, we disconnect from the very thing we are working for.
If you have ever felt spiritually exhausted while trying to do all the right things, this message is for you.
