 At the end of last year, I got totally emotionally burnt out, which led me to taking a break. During that time, I learned and relearned three things that I want to share with you. Taking a break is good even when it feels uncomfortable and painful. A perpetually burnt out disciple does more harm than good on the mission field. Second thing is that the world doesn't crumble when you decide to take a step back for a moment. This reminded me that it's not about me anyway. The third thing is in the midst of rest, we often do our most painful work because we're forced to address the feelings and wounds that we've been suppressing. And I've been asking Christ to help me work through those things. Follow for more Christ-centered content.
