I was feeling a little overwhelmed recently, I believe it’s due to a number of things, one being the amount of work that I feel needs to be done. In reality, there isn’t any more work than any other year, in fact I’m probably ahead of schedule. I believe there are three things this anxiety can be attributed towards.
The first two will be fought with prayer, quiet time and an ability to let God into my life. After reflecting on this summer I probably could have spent more time meeting with the people who are the ministry leaders for students. Don’t get me wrong I communicated with them but it was more project oriented and not enough growth oriented. I believe everyone who serves in the student ministry is a great leader, manager, worker or all three, but if I don’t spend the time developing them, then this ministry will never grow.
