Exhausted

Somehow summer has ran me over and then kept going. I’m exhausted. My body is just tired. Why I am exhausted is interesting to think about in light of my post on ministry burnout earlier this week. I can’t pinpoint why I’m totally spent though.

I’ve been on the stage on Sunday morning 12 of the last 14 Sunday mornings and I haven’t (technically) taken a day off of work in a year. Granted I only worked part time for most of the year, but I was also in school. This isn’t supposed to be some whiny post or a chance for me to complain; I just hear my body screaming for some time to rest. Luckily we leave for a one week trip to Alaska, to see Rose’s parents, in 11 days. I honestly cannot wait.

Can you relate to any of this?
