Responsibilities

Do you ever have so much to do that you just want to do nothing? I feel like that happens for most people more often than we will admit to. Or maybe not but it happens for me sometimes.

So Why God? Just now as I right this I asked God “Why are you giving me so many responsibilities that sometimes feel like they are too much to manage?” And he answered me “Because you are the best person for the job”

I love when God answers my prayers and questions immediately. Especially if it is something that gives some encouragement.

So when I am stressed because the dogs want to go outside a million times or want a million treats, I have to remember that they need me and they are grateful for me helping them. The same with my family, after a long day of work sometimes making dinner and cleaning up after is stressful but knowing my family is fed and my home is clean takes that stress away.

So when I feel overwhelmed or that I have too many responsibilities, I have to thank God instead because he gave me a family to love and who loves me back, he gave me, currently 3 dogs, to care for and they love me back to.

I encourage you to ask God why when you feel stressed, overwhelmed or like you can’t handle any responsibility you have. He can give you encouragement to continue or may even say that is not your responsibility because it might not be a responsibility that belongs to you.

In all responsibilities, stressed or not, we should always ask God 2 questions, 1 to help guide us through and 2 to confirm if it is a responsibility we should be taking on. Easier said than done, I need to practice this more myself. I always say yes to things, especially at work, because I want to help everyone but I have to know what my responsibilities are based on Gods instruction.

Next time you are going to take on a new responsibility or if you have any current ones that feel like they are too much, say Why God?

I will leave you with some Bible verses that relate to responsibility.

“But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. For each one shall bear his own load.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“But he who did not know, yet committed things deserving of stripes, shall be beaten with few. For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭12‬:‭48‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men,”
‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Disclaimer: I encourage everyone to do their own studying of the verses, you may come to a different understanding and that’s ok. I am up for any feedback or discussion. Comment below.
