And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Galatians 6:9(KJV)

Have you ever felt that with the stresses of life and responsibilities on your shoulders that you have lost yourself? Trying to be everything to everyone is truly a exhausting burden to carry. You will begin to lose the heart for the good things you are doing and feel more drained than fulfilled. So how do we restore the heart to serve others without losing ourselves in the process? First set realistic expectations. We all have limitations. If we spread ourselves too thin, even with the best of intentions our efforts in one way or another will suffer;We must know when to say no.
Second, in order to be effective in service we must take the time to allow God to replenish us. A car cannot run on a empty tank and you cannot run on just good intentions. You need Gods power to fuel you to serve and to supercharge your drive to remain excited about your purpose. So everyday you need to read Gods word, sit before Him in prayer and just allow God to fill you with what you need to serve and renew your heart so that you are able to remain passionate about where He has placed you to serve in the body of Christ.
Love,
