Numb

Lately I have been so busy preparing and planning for a major ministry shift at our church. It has been fun and exciting, but it has also taken huge amounts of time and I still have tons to do!
With my mind an body constantly going to get things done in time, certain parts of my mind have sort of shut-off and become numb. I’m having a hard time findin things that excite me or to look forward to. I’m having a hard time funding healthy diversions and setting aside time to do some of the things I love.
I think this all comes down to rythm and schedule.
If God thought it was important to take a day to rest, so should I. I need to set Monday aside as my day-off, period. Then I need to be intentional about taking regular breaks from all things work or ministry related so I can focus and other important things.
I’m good at setting aside the evenings for family time, but even that can get crowded out from time to time.
Upon movin back to Salem, my wife and I made a commitment to go on a weekly date, but now we’re finding that hard to keep with our schedules and, mainly, our lack of money to go anywhere together or to pay a babysitter.
With God’s grace, we will prevail- just pray for us durin this difficult transition.
