Recognize the Warning Signs

Burnout can creep up on us, masquerading as fatigue, stress, or anxiety. But neglecting our spiritual well-being can have severe consequences (Matthew 22:37). Take a step back and assess your life:

• Are you consistently feeling exhausted, even after rest?
• Have you stopped engaging in activities that bring you joy?
• Do you feel disconnected from God and others?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, it’s time to take action.

Start Small

When we’re tired, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by our spiritual practices. But what if you started small? Try:

• Reading one verse or a short devotional each day
• Praying for just 5-10 minutes, focusing on one aspect of your life
• Fasting on social media or TV for a few hours
  • By fasting from these things, you can:
  • Reduce mental clutter and distractions
  • Increase focus and productivity
  • Create space for prayer, meditation, and quiet reflection
  • Break the habit of constant scrolling and screen time
  • Improve mental and emotional well-being

Remember, consistency is key (Galatians 6:9). Begin with manageable habits that nourish your soul.

Create a Routine

Incorporate spiritual practices into your daily routine, just like brushing your teeth or taking a shower. Try:

• Waking up 15 minutes earlier for quiet time
• Listening to worship music or podcasts during your commute
• Sharing gratitude with a friend or family member

• Adjust your schedule as needed

Remember, You’re Not Alone

Burnout is a common experience, but it doesn’t have to define you. Remember:

• God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18)
• Jesus invites us to rest in Him (Matthew 11:28-30)
• The Holy Spirit empowers us to live a fruitful life (Galatians 5:22-23)
