5 Encouraging Prayers for the Weary Woman Serving in Ministry

Have you served in ministry for several years and enjoy serving God’s people, but are you weary?  On Sundays, you go through the motions but have lost your zeal and joy. You've replaced being for doing and may feel disconnected from God. You enjoy using your gifts to serve others and glorify God but feel overwhelmed and need to be restored by God's spirit. You minister and pour out to so many weekly, but your soul needs to be ministered to. As women in ministry, we serve in many different capacities, care for children and aging parents, work, and are involved in many other social activities. Our time is stretched, and boundaries are blurred. You know you need to slow down but feel guilty for trying. God doesn’t want us to serve empty but to serve restored and joyfully. Exhaustion and burnout no longer have to continue to be badges of honor. You can start a new narrative today.
