Why Am I So Tired?

Intro

We wear “busy” as a badge of honor

Our culture measures success by what we produce or accomplish

Being busy and being productive are 2 very different things

When our busy schedules fail to produce the results we desire, we get tired

Why Am I So Tired?

Jesus gives us insight as to how to break free from the busyness that often takes us hostage

Luke 10:38–42 NLT

38 As Jesus and the disciples continued on their way to Jerusalem, they came to a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. 39 Her sister, Mary, sat at the Lord’s feet, listening to what he taught. 40 But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me.” 41 But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! 42 There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.”

Busyness is a byproduct of perfectionism

The main objective gets lost in the pursuit of perfection of the details

YOU are the reason YOU ARE busy

Try to push blame to others

Time is a gift. How you use is it up to you.

Busyness makes us lose sight of relationship

What needs to be left undone so you can sit for an un-rushed conversation?
