Have You Reached Your God Limit? 🤔
Can you truly have "enough" of God? This profound question emerged during a conversation with a Christian organization leader who mentioned needing breaks from constant biblical engagement.

While burnout in ministry work is understandable, there's a crucial distinction between professional religious duties and personal spiritual connection. Even after exhausting days of Bible TV recordings and 650-kilometer travels, the hunger for God's Word remains undiminished.
The danger lies in letting faith become merely a job rather than a lifestyle. Jesus warned about this in Matthew 7:22-23 (NLT): "Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and... perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you...'"
True faith flourishes in quiet moments of personal connection with God. While ministry work spreads the gospel, we can only authentically share what we've experienced in intimate relationship with Him. Even when fatigue tempts us to choose entertainment over devotion, nurturing our spiritual life must remain a priority.
Consider these reflection points:
- Is your faith a job or a lifestyle?
- Are you maintaining genuine intimacy with God?
- Have your priorities aligned with your spiritual values?
Remember: spiritual growth isn't about religious activity but about deepening your relationship with God. There's always more of Him to discover, no matter how "full" you might feel.
You are a miracle!
