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. As a pastor, I've seen how having a routine can help people navigate difficult times. So, I make sure to go to bed and get up at the same times each day, eat at appointed times, and exercise at appointed times. I also make a schedule for the day and write down one thing I agree to work on every day. This helps me stay focused and motivated, even when I'm feeling drained. I also try to remember that I'm not alone in this struggle. As a Christian, I believe that God gives us other people to help us through tough times. I reach out to my wife, Susan, and our friends for support and encouragement. We can all use a reminder that we're not alone, and that there are people who care about us and want to help. I also try to stay connected with my community at church, where we can pray for and support each other. When I'm feeling exhausted and in pain, I try to take small steps towards recovery. I remember that God is always with me, and that He has a plan to give me strength for the moment. I take a deep breath, ask for God's help, and take the first step towards recovery. I don't try to tackle everything at once, but instead focus on one small thing I can do to move forward. And I remind myself that God is working in my life, even when I don't feel like it. He's preparing my heart for victory, and He's arranging circumstances to help me recover.
