A recent survey conducted by Talker Research concluded that 3 out of 5 US adults feel more tired now than ever. Why are Americans so tired? In this decade, we have experienced a pandemic, racial tension, political unrest, war, rising costs, and several natural disasters. These traumatic events have frustrated and saddened us, which has caused mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual fatigue. Many believe we are living in “The Great Exhaustion” era.
Fatigue is a negative feeling that causes you to think incorrectly and believe Satan’s lies. It makes you turn your back on what God has called you to do and run from your responsibilities. Ironically, tired people run as fast and far as they can from where they should be. Fatigue makes you selfish and keeps you from loving God and others.
I will use biblical examples this month to show you how fatigue hurts your life. Then, teach Jesus’ strategy for refreshing your mind, body, and spirit. This January, you will learn how to find rest for your soul!
“Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:29, NLT)
