 Stop & listen

Luke 10:38-42

When I was younger, I thought that I needed to fill every need I saw in ministries, I was a Martha.

But in doing so, I found that I was burning myself out spiritually & was getting physically sick every so often. When this happened I would not have anything to give to others including my family. 

In time, I figured out that I could not do it all. For I needed to take the time to stop , sit & listen to God's Word. Like Mary to refill myself. 

So if I say, 'No' to a request for ministry. It is because I want to be strong in the areas I am ministering in & not burn out so badly that I can't minister at all.
