On this journey called life one thing we can easily do is get tired and burnt out. Doing the MOST! Today's world glamorizes being busy and overworking as a badge of honor. Even in the church we have a tendency to get into the Martha Syndrome of being too busy doing and moving, that we neglect the needful thing being still and giving our attention to Jesus and the Word of God. So often time we find ourselves tired, weak and exhausted. In other word's void AND depleted of strength on all levels. It's so refreshing to know that The Lord's strength is everlasting. It never runs out and for those who put their complete Trust and Faith in Him. He will be a constant source of strength when we are tired and weak. Let's not wait until we are worn out from trying to do things in our own efforts and strength to come to the Father for help! Let's make it a lifestyle to refer to Him first and Rest in His ability!
