Burn Out - Ps Jose Carol

Isaiah 40: 29-31 "He energizes those who get tired, gives fresh strength to dropouts. For even young people tire and drop out, young folk in their prime stumble and fall. But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles,They run and don’t get tired,they walk and don’t lag behind."
Matthew 11:28-30 "“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

1. Find God
Matthew 6:6 “Here’s what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won’t be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace."

2. Be still
Psalm 46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God."

3. Take God's yoke
The reason why we're stressed out, because we're walking too fast or too slow from God's walk plan.
God's shoulder is far stronger than ours, to pile and carry our troubles.
