Anyone else feeling overly anxious these days? I used to pride myself in being able to handle the daily stresses of life by eating well, sleeping well, daily time in the Bible, praying, being active, and a weekly relaxing bath.

Have you wondered, “If I take time off if I take a break, what will happen with all the things I have my hands in right now? Will I lose momentum? Will everything get done? Who will make sure all the things and people are taken care of?”

If I asked you how you were honestly doing right now, what would you say? If you exhaled loudly and said “exhausted,” you are not alone! In fact, when I talk with pastors and leaders around the U.S. right now, one recurring theme is exhaustion.

So, you know decisions need to continue being made, but if you’re being honest you just want to hide from them or there are so many it’s actually paralyzing, so what do you do?
