This weekend I recently had a mental breakdown because everyone has been asking me for time. I only have a limited amount of time and I’ve been giving it out willingly. However it’s taken a toll on me , because the things I want to do I can’t do because I’ve been giving my time to others. As a single mom I feel bad because I can’t even give the time I want to my son because I’m either doing stuff for other people , working, or if I finally get a moment I just want to lay down. I’ve also put God in the background because I’ve allocated my time to everyone else. Once I finally reached my breaking point I just cried and didn’t know what to do. How can I give my time out effectively to God and everyone else without burning out? How can I juggle being a child of God, mother , daughter , friend , employee, and in the future a wife with only 24 hours in a day? I’ve mentally struggled with this for a long time as well. I have struggled with procrastination since I was 12. Because mentally I have so much going on and lost focus easily. While crying I felt defeated and didn’t know what to do. However, a thought came to my head and said Will I give God my time? The answer of course was yes and so I said I can give God an hour in the morning and an hour before I go to sleep. Then after that a question came to my head. What is important to me? I sat there for a while and thought about it. I felt lead to make a list ranking what’s important to me from greatest to least. From now on I’ll handle my matters as such even if that means causing people to be mad at me. A few Bible verses about having a contrite spirit/heart popped up to my head as well. But I’m still looking into them and the meaning behind it.
I feel better about the situation now. However from a child of God , mother , daughter , wife , etc. point of view how do you guys deal with giving out your time without burning out?
