These days it is so easy to become tired or even exhausted. Feelings of weariness and continuous worry can be debilitating enough to have the strongest person in the world break under the pressures of life.
Today as I sat in prayer, numb, I prayed for many things. I couldn’t cry, I wasn’t sad, nor was I happy, but I was numb.
Exhausted: drained of one's physical or mental resources; very tired.
I remember saying “ I am exhausted“ and then I wrote it down in my journal.
I am exhausted. I am exhausted from trying to make things work, exhausted trying to make it make sense, exhausted from having to perform each and every day when all want to do is lay on the sofa and watch old television shows.
It was/is not the will of the one who is greater nor is it part of our purpose to be weighted down until we barely have strength to move!
Emotionally, I have tapped out but during prayer, I was reminded that I need to tap in.
Funny as it is, tapping takes effort, and may require digging to occur beyond what is normal.
Today I dug. Eating relieves exhaustion; I ate Romans 1-7. Believe it or not being active relieves exhaustion; I worked outside and went shopping for a bit.
Today is the last day any of us will be exhausted! Exhaustion has no place in our lives……
