Your Question:
How do I keep going when I'm exhausted and in pain?
Answer:
When I'm exhausted and in pain, I remind myself of the importance of structure and organization. Having a schedule and sticking to it helps me stay on track, even when I don't feel like it. I make sure to go to bed and wake up at the same times each day, eat at appointed times, and exercise regularly. This helps me feel more grounded and in control, even when I'm feeling overwhelmed. I also try to focus on the bigger picture and remember that there is joy set before me (Hebrews 12:2). When I'm feeling tired and struggling, it's easy to get caught up in my own problems and feel like I'm alone. But I remind myself that I'm not alone, and that God is with me. I try to reach out to others for support, whether it's a friend, family member, or my wife Susan. And I remind myself that God is working in my life, even when I don't feel like it. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with exhaustion and pain, and I've learned that it's often a matter of taking small steps of faith and obedience. It's not about trying to tackle everything at once, but about taking one step at a time. I try to focus on one thing I can do each day, and then build on that. And I remind myself that God gives us strength for the moment, not for tomorrow or the next hour. When I feel like I'm running on empty, I try to give myself to God spiritually, and trust that He will give me the strength I need to keep going.
