First of all, what is GRACE, and how can we make room for Grace?
In Christian belief, Grace refers to the unearned and unconditional love and favor of God towards humanity. It signifies that individuals receive blessings and forgiveness not based on their merits or works, but as a gift from God.
another definition of grace means elegance in movement, showing a smooth and beautiful way of moving or acting.
I know I’m not the only one… 
Balancing life, ministry, motherhood, and maintaining spiritual growth as well as other aspects of life can be quite challenging, managing daily responsibilities often feels overwhelming.
That’s when I came up with the idea of this article, and decided to share my wisdom on the topic.
Ways to Balance Life &Activities
Ministry was taking over my life, as I focused on serving others in every way possible, neglecting myself in the process, as a result, I often burned out.
According to Psychology TODAY website, " Burnout is a state of emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion caused by prolonged stress. It often arises from excessive work demands but can also occur in other areas of life, such as parenting or caregiving. Common signs of burnout include fatigue, cynicism, and reduced performance. The World Health Organization recognizes burnout as a syndrome resulting from chronic workplace stress. Addressing burnout is crucial for maintaining overall well-being and health."
Here are some ways I have implemented this strategy, and how you can too, with elegance and God’s favor.
1. Staying Connected to God’s Word
2. Journaling, Reflection, and Study
I picked up Journaling, reflection and study. Writing out my thoughts and prayers on a piece of paper or journal was a game changer. Reflecting on what I read, and studying topics with a more intensive approach, was quite helpful and informative. Journaling my thoughts and reflections helped me process what God is teaching me, and reading faith-based books strengthened my walk with GOD challenging me to grow and develop spiritually.
"Boundaries" by Dr. Henry Cloud & Dr. John Townsend – Learning to set healthy limits while still honoring my calling. This was quite eye opening book to read, I have discovered as well as challenged my areas of no boundaries, and clearly outlined them. "The Walk" by Shawn Alexander – A simple guide to understanding Christian discipleship and different stages of it. I read this book along with my husband, we have been learning much, and applying what we learned to our lives. "Understanding Jesus" by Stephen M. Miller – A deep dive into the historical and cultural context of Jesus’ teachings, life, and miracles. Get ready for THIS one, it is quite challenging to read, but BOY is it informative and helpful in the long run.
3. Strength in Worship
4. Self-Care
5. Balance
How to maintain balance in your life & faith journey?
Balancing life and activities is the key to life, and happiness. Learn to navigate through it.
Your Story is important to someone else. The details of your testimony are life to someone else. I couldn’t have spoken into strangers life, if I myself did not go through the battles. I can only speak because I know the pain, the hurt, and confusion. I pray God comforts us, and gives us the grace to tell our story, no matter how small the details are.
Let’s not hesitate to share our testimonies and help each other walk through the valleys, and reach our destinations together. With a sense of fulfillment, and helping others get there can be a rewarding and satisfying experience, because when we lift each other up, we don’t just reach our destinations, we thrive in them.
I’d love to share your Story on my SITE!
