Slow your PACE. Examine the LOAD you carry.
Take TIME
to focus on self-care...
to avoid ministry crash-and-burn.
Moving at a fast pace
while carrying a heavy load can:
- Increase your sense of personal failure as a ministry leader.
- Reduce or eliminate the time you take to think through next steps.
- Negatively impact relationships
(friends, family, and with those you lead). - Impact your health: physically, mentally, and spirirually.
- Leave you an empty shell.
Ever wonder why
your creativity and clear thinking
seem lacking at times?
Here’s some brain science:
Long-term stress and anxiety cause the brain’s fight or flight mechanisms to rule. Ever notice how you cannot find your keys, especially when you are stressed about not finding your keys?
As your stress increases about the lost keys… the keys remain lost.
Guess how that impacts ministry when the Holy Spirit’s creativity is urging you to follow?
As your anxiety rises, the creativity goes DOWN, DOWN, down…
