You know when you feel so drained and nothing you do makes you feel full again. That's the state I'm in. When you feel like you've given so much and the things you thought were going to fill you just don't seem to cut it anymore. It not that the things that fill me don't or they aren't anymore...it's just I've hit the point when I've become so emotionally exhausted that I need a break. The only thing that can restore me feelings is spending time alone and spending time with God. Its like I try so hard to be filled and completed with the people I love and care about but then after a day's time I realize that all I've been doing is giving of myself when really I need to spend time being filled by God. I've given so much that I don't have anything left to give.
I think we all hit that point. When the things that normally give us joy and fulfillment don't anymore and we just need a break. A break to take time and relax in who God is and His healing power. I think that's the point when we realize that there is not enough of God in our lives. No matter how much we think He's there. He really isn't...or maybe He's there we just don't recognize Him like we should.
All I know is I've reached the breaking point emotionally...when the only thing that can fill me is Christ. And I need that time. We all do. But we so often forget to take it until we've reached the point in which I currently stand.
