She goes and she goes and she goes. And then she stops. HCE
A church leader once told me that serving in a particular position in the denomination had probably shortened his life by three years. I’ve never forgotten that.
Sometimes I sleep for 12 hours straight for the sake of recovery. Like last night.
Our natural lives can be shortened by so many things – mostly stress-related. Family conflicts, job anxieties, health stresses, trauma. The irony is that even serving One who said “I come to bring abundant life,” can drain us.
So who/what is the thief in your life shortening your lifespan instead of energizing you these days? May you find a comfy bed with a chunk of time or even a hard bench in a beautiful place for a long sit very soon.
Have a wonderful weekend.
