We try to be the best worker, the best spouse, the best parent, the best friend, the best Christian. Sometimes we just need to step back and rest in the peace of Christ. He has blessed us with so much, and often we are simply too busy to enjoy it. When we renew our souls in Him, we can rise even when our bodies are on the verge of collapse.

When the difficulty is lasting longer than expected, when you're working hard but not seeing an increase, weariness will come. If the enemy can't take you out all at once, his next strategy is to try to wear you down. Many people are suffering from battle fatigue. They've been standing a long time, trying to break the addiction, believing for the promotion, praying for that family member, but it hasn't happened yet.
Don't be weary in well doing. It doesn't seem like it's making a difference. Let me encourage you that your time is coming. Your due season is on the way. Don't let time talk you out of it.

Your mind will give you good excuses. So on today remove any excuses in the area of your life where you feel weary.
