Who Told You That?

You’ve got so much to do. You’re behind on so much. It’s gotta get done, and there’s nobody else to do it. God’s giving it to you, He’s pushing you to be better, to serve Him more faithfully, and the pressure will help you grow in holiness. At the same time, you’re dreading waking up because you’ve got so much to do. You’re dreading going to sleep because you might be leaving things undone. You’re overwhelmed, your prayer life is suffering, you might even feel abandoned. And you’re not sure why, because this is how it’s supposed to be. Who told you that? God doesn’t pressure. He doesn’t impose. He invites, He guides; He doesn’t need you to be a worker bee. He wants you to be His child. So then who told you that? In this episode, John and Victor discuss how easy it is to fall into the trap of overworking and overwhelming ourselves, a trap that nobody - not even people who work in ministry - are immune to. They talk about what we’ve allowed ourselves to believe about our work, even work that we love, how easily we can grow so used to the pressure (or our own justification of it) that we can replace God’s voice with that one, and how we can bring ourselves back from that mindset; to remember that we don’t have to save the world, because He already did.
