Often the stress we find so overwhelming is of our own making. We continue to take on more and more responsibilities until we are overwhelmed. The first step in regaining control of our lives is to pare down our responsibilities. That means you will probably have to let some good things go and that’s okay. Once you have regained control of your life you will be tempted to take on more responsibility. To avoid falling back into the same old trap determine not to take on any new responsibilities unless you are willing to let something go to make room for it.
“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
— Matthew 11:28 (NKJV)
Lord, balance our work with Your rest. Amen.
