Another good word of thought to help you through. Dont Let Yourself Snap Lets say youre working around the house and break a rubber band while trying to stretch it around something. You cant find another rubber band, so you try to fix the broken one by tying the ends together. Sometimes in our daily lives, we stretch ourselves beyond our capacity, and we snap like the rubber band. We think weve fixed the problem by simply tying the ends back together. But soon we fall into the same behavior that caused us to break down in the first place. Over time with repeated exposure to stress, our lives begin to resemble that worn-out rubber band. It can completely deplete us. Ignoring Gods laws and His ordained limits for our lives will ultimately cause burnout. You simply cant continue to overwork your mind, emotions and body without eventually paying the price. But thats not how God wants you to live. Adjust your perspective to match Gods. Seek His peace and His pace for your life. Respect your body. Treat good health as a priceless gift. Dont waste the energy God has given you on stress. Save it for living and enjoying life! Prayer Starter: God, I want to find my rest in You. Instead of constantly going and snapping under stress, show me how to follow Your pace for my life. Bible verse: And lovingkindness is Yours, O Lord, For You recompense a man according to his work. (Psalms 62:12 NASB)
