Christian Burnout? Hidden Things That Keep You Drained

Nobody picks up a burden on purpose. We pick up what looks like love. Somebody needs help, so we help. Something has to get done, so we do it. And because we're capable, people keep handing us things until one day we realize we're carrying things we don't even remember choosing. In this episode, Donna names the disguises: carrying responsibility for everyone around us and calling it faithfulness. Carrying guilt whenever we put something down and calling it accountability. Carrying pressure to do more, have more, produce more and calling it commitment. In this episode you'll discover: • Why a burden doesn't always look like a burden sometimes it looks like love, responsibility, even faithfulness • The difference between doing something from overflow and doing it from depletion • Why Jesus didn't say "come, and keep proving how faithful you are". He said, simply, come • Why you can't receive with hands that are already full Responsibility isn't what drains us. Believing everything depends on us is. He didn't say, "Keep carrying what looks faithful and push through." He said, "Come." 🎥 Watch Next: Are You the One Everyone Depends On? 🍂 COME AWAY An Encounter with Rest, Identity, Healing, and the Fullness of the Life Jesus Paid For.
