The Cure For BurnoutUkázka

## Let go and let God The Bible says that God is our present help in trouble. All we have to do is receive that help. He is the one who must give us strength for right now. However, there are times when we do not put our situations in God's hands because it is not easy for us; we always want to be in control. But every time we take control of our lives, we take them out of God's hands. That does not mean we do not have a responsibility. Paul the Apostle said that there is a time when you have to do everything you can, but once you have done that, there is no more you can do. Then you have to let things go and let God do His work. You should not repeatedly go back over the same situation, beating yourself up and blaming yourself. The Bible says that God will work out His plan for your life. You have to come to that conclusion whether you feel it or not, whether you see it or not. The Lord will guide you along the best pathway for your life. God is maneuvering things in your behalf, and even if you do not see it for a long time, all of a sudden, He will show up. Therefore, you have to do your best and let God do His part. Another thing to consider is that burnout is the result of the constant emotional drainage that we are facing. There are two eternities, yesterday and tomorrow, and we cannot do anything about them. Moreover, every time we try to carry these two eternities, it will always drain us emotionally. We cannot do anything about yesterday because it is gone, it is history, and it is in the past. We cannot do anything about tomorrow, because it is not here yet. When tomorrow comes, it is today, and we have learned that God is in the present. There is an essential principle that you must learn: God only gives life in days. God does not give life in weeks, months, or years. He only provides life in days. “This is the day, that God has made; we will rejoice.” “Give us this day our daily bread.” “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days.” These are some scriptures that show this truth. The Bible says very little about years, months, or weeks, so you must focus on what you need to do today—enjoy it, and smell the roses. Do not let things burn you out and ruin your life. Remember that worry never empties tomorrow of its problems, only today of its strength.
